Artist Inspiration:

Kathee’s kittens love yarn and get into trouble with it (knotty = naughty!)

Artist Bio:

Kathee grew up in the Golden area and studied at Arizona State University earning a BFA in Painting and a MA in Anthropology (Sociolinguistics). “My husband and I love the Colorado sunshine, so we moved back here to raise our family."

Her artwork is influenced by her interests in gardening, storytelling, genealogy, and psychology. “I love discovering layers of meaning and hidden stories and I also enjoy incorporating new art mediums into my repertoire." The Foothills Art Center included her random weave baskets in their 2016 holiday art market.

“Knotty Kitty” is inspired by her cats' naughty play with yarn. This complicated and colorful design is Kathee’s first entry into the Tails of the Painted Cats project.
