My name is Katie. I am a mom of two from a small town in the Midwest. I have been making art as a hobby my whole life but recently decided to start selling my work. I am a completely self-taught artist.

Life is more enjoyable and interesting to me if I don't miss out on the small things...the texture of a pet's fur or the personality in their eyes. Living things I see everyday inspire me to create my art. I love the challenge of capturing nature’s details. My art is a part of me and it's my way of understanding and enjoying life. ​

My business name comes from the idea that everything I create begins with a pencil outline. I primarily work with colored pencil, but also create artwork using watercolor, acrylics, ink pens, graphite, charcoal, and pastels.
