Katie became an artist at a young age, perfecting her art
skills by putting value into her coloring book pictures and carefully making
small villages out of play dough. A number of events through out her life
formed not only a love but an undying need to keep art in her life, always.
Giving depth and value to art projects as early as the coloring
book years was credited to her family as her older sister showed her how “old
girls drew” and her mother trusted Katie in her middle school years to take the
reins on the design end of her mother’s published “How To” books. Katie found
this to be engaging and took art classes through all of her years of school.
Katie really found that she couldn’t live without art when she decided to go
for a nursing major. She took a drawing class on the side and found that all of
her love and work went towards that class rather than her other studies. The
next semester Katie new something had to change, she had to go with her love of
art and fulfill a career in it. The support given by her loving husband, a current
BYU student in advertising, was gratifying for her new decision. The two work
off each other for advice, criticism and support.
Katie is now found creating all sorts of art from yarn
designs on her living room wall to fulfilling her current school education in
Graphic Design. Katie has found photography to be a perfect medium to all
realms of art. It grasps and collects great design, inspiring emotions and
touching moments.
