Hi, I’m Kate!

Fine Art & Watercolor Artist

As a native of Augusta, I fell in love with watercolor after many years of working full-time in the marketing industry and pursuing my creative journey part-time. I began painting homes as gifts for loved ones and at my church, and the rest is history. My true passion lies in illustrating and painting homes, churches, and other landmarks with vibrant colors and intricate details.

Since finding my niche in watercolor, I have had the opportunity to paint murals on buildings in the area and have been featured in Augusta Magazine twice and The Scout Guide. If you’ve ever enjoyed a meal at Cantina Locale in Daniel Village, Doc’s Porchside, or NOLA Coffee in Graniteville, you’ve seen my work in the wild!

My client, the bride, immediately fell in love with the watercolor, and I was so proud to say that it was created by my friend, and former wedding client, Kate Gary!!!
