I'm so excited to chat with Kate Waddell on today's episode! We talk about how she's built her business through commissions, online sales and galleries and how she decides which paintings become prints. We also talk about working through slow time periods and how to stop comparing yourself to others.
About Kate:
Here
are some little tid-bits about me: I was born and raised in
Columbus, Ga and then ventured on to the fairytale city of
Charleston, SC where I attended the College of Charleston & earned
my degree in Studio Art. After my first painting class at the
college, I left very discouraged in my seemingly horrible painting
style and was determined to never paint again. My professor, Tony
Csavas, encouraged me in my different style and is one of the main
reasons why I kept painting. Too, I am a follower of Jesus and
through painting, I see the beauty of His creation & the Joy that
comes from that.
I have always loved people, the human figure and color. Inspired mostly by light and color, I try to embody Cezanne in painting subjects in such a way that allows a human eye to detect the image through color and line. With that, my hope is to paint the things I see in a refreshing and distinct way.
