KATE BATES

Hi, I am Kate, a mixed media artist.

After achieving a Degree in Art and Education, I have been teaching for 25 years both in school and running workshops from my studio.

My current work explores botanical form, using bold shape and colour. These artworks are created using Acrylic on board and canvas.

I spend my time in my studio on the family farm in Dyrham just outside Bath. Here I find inspiration through nature and my natural surroundings, all helping to develop my creativity.

If I am not painting or running a workshop in the studio you will find me walking my dogs, riding my horse or spending time with my four boys.
