Kathryn Moore's website

Kathryn Moore is an artist who incorporates many creative disciplines within her work. Predominantly interested in surface texture and the tactile quality of materials, Kathryn uses the elements of landscape as her source of inspiration.

Kathryn was brought up in a rural setting of the West Country. This has had a significant influence on her versatility, resourcefulness and appreciation of skills such as willow weaving, spinning, natural dyeing, pottery and the creating of images from recycled or found objects, all of which are combined to a greater or lesser degree in her work.

An appetite for travel lead Kathryn to take two year long trips to the Americas, and South East Asia and Australia, where she kept copious painted diaries of her explorations. Kathryn has said “Travel was such an important factor in broadening my knowledge and experience before I felt prepared to embark on any career in art.”

After attending Bristol Polytechnic, and her subsequent move to East Anglia, Kathryn has been a professional artist, concentrating on private commissions. She has been involved in numerous community projects, workshops and exhibitions in and around Peterborough, and was the founder member, along with fellow painter, Sue Shields, to form the Peterborough Artists’ Open Studios.

Kathryn’s current work is based on recent travels to France, Cyprus and Spain. Her vibrant use of colour is evident in depicting these scenes.
