About Kathleen

Harford County

I am a watercolor artist who recently moved to Havre de Grace after spending most of my life in Florida.  I love the fluid and translucent properties of watercolor and always look forward to putting down that first wash on fresh paper.  While in Florida I became enamored and maybe a bit obsessed with painting alligators. Every time I would see one, I would notice the beautiful ways that the sun would light up their scales and I must have taken hundreds of photos of them.  After going... more

Alligators

My favorite subject matter. Some people may not see the beauty in these creatures, but I have always been fascinated with them.

Birds

  • ostrich

    My son and I went to one of those wildlife safaris where you drive through and the animals come right up to your car. This guy was mean!! He actually started attacking our car, but I managed to get some good photos of him. Watercolor on cold pressed paper 22"x 30"

  • Baby bird

    A friend found this baby bird on the side of the street, and I thought it was adorable. Watercolor on cold pressed paper 12"x 12"

  • Blue Heron

    Watercolor on cold pressed paper 22"x30" I was lucky enough to get a photo of this bird and her nest and couldn't wait to paint it.

  • Egret

  • Lynn's Chicken

Carnival Museum

Last Spring I went to France and found a wonderful carnival museum. I'm currently still working on this series from photos that I took.

Komodo dragons

  • Komodo dragon

    Watercolor on cold pressed paper 22"x30" Painting this guy was challenging and exciting for me. I think that when you are excited by a piece that you're working on---the time flys by too quickly.

  • Dragon 3

People

  • red solo cup

    Watercolor on cold pressed paper 22"x 30" I got some great photos at a Renaissance Festival, combined a couple of them for this painting and it was a fun piece to work on.

  • Jean Marie

    Watercolor on cold pressed paper 22"x30" Another really fun painting to do after a day of kayaking and I really enjoyed the reflections in the photo that I took that day.

Havre de Grace

My new hometown is a beautiful place.  Lately I've been enjoying doing some small paintings of the wooden birds on the pier.
