I love painting and drawing, and I've been doing both for most of my life. Even during my 20 years at newspapers, I managed to do some freelance painting and drawing jobs. I love all sorts of animals and I'm sure that comes across in my art. You'll find by checking my portfolio or my website, www.KathyArt.com, that I do all kinds of graphic design work, as well. It's great when I can mix the two and do book design and illustration that involves nature in any way, especially wildlife of all kinds, or any landscapes that can include creatures.
