Painting is a way for me to express gratitude and hope as I navigate the seasons of life. I began painting shortly after my oldest son was diagnosed with a rare disease. Painting gave me a place of peace to process what was happening. Taking courses to learn new techniques was a distraction in the best way. After my son’s successful treatment, I found myself overflowing with gratitude, hope, joy, and peace, and those emotions found their way onto the canvas.

Kate Pryor combines her experience in fine art and interior design to create harmonious abstract paintings that explore themes of time, memory, and dreams.

Kate Pryor’s creative process is a dance between order and chaos. She lays plans, but does not micromanage the creative spirit. She coaxes structure from spontaneous mark making, in conversation with a piece as it moves towards a vision.

Guided by wabi-sabi philosophy, Pryor embraces irregularity, imperfection, and change. Nothing is perfect; nothing is permanent. She sees beauty in this, and she feels freedom as well.

“I have connected with art and design for as long as I can remember, which drew me to a decade-long career in fashion design, marketing and merchandising.

My work is strongly rooted in the aesthetics of joy and my greatest pleasure is creating custom artwork that inspires and lifts my clients’ spirits every day.”
