The Arts of Life

Kathy is a highly intuitive artist whose brush seems to work on its own, playfully darting around on the canvas adding colors and shapes. She works slowly, with spurts of activity, building a lush, layered translucence of circles, dots, and cloud-like shapes. Added layer upon layer, her simple shapes come together to form a complex dance of color and light.

Artist’s Statement

I live in Oak Park, Illinois. I get [to the studio] by a bus.

I like to paint circles and different colors. I am painting colors now. I like to paint on windows most. I have my own workstation at the Arts of Life.

I love good breaks. Working hard, getting paid. I like to get paid ’cause then I can buy summer clothes. Janet [Denise] pays me.

I like movies- any kind. Sometimes my two sisters come and visit me. We go out to lunch- McDonald’s. I like to go out with my sisters for dinner also.

I like snacks. Crackers, potato chips. Only one pop a day!

I work hard at my workstation.
