Kathleen Frugé-Brown painter, printmaker, and public artist

ARTIST STATEMENT

Whether I am painting outdoors, carving a print in my studio, or designing for a public space, my art is rooted in my love for the natural world. The river and forest surrounding my Pacific Northwest studio are a constant source of imagery and spiritual nourishment to me, and my roots have gone down deep in the hours I’ve stood outdoors painting. My hope is to share that with others, through paintings that invite viewers into a special place and moment, and through public art that strengthens and celebrates viewers' connection to their own landscape.
