Kate Durkin is an artist from New York who creates beautiful and childlike works of art. Painting and hand embroidery are her loves and any one of her pieces would be a perfect gift. She studied at The New School in NY and also received a certificate for painting from SACI in Italy. Her design skills and overall craftsmanship proves her an awesome artist.

With a number of solo and group exhibitions under her belt, she now works in Queens and has a shop on Etsy where she sells her paintings and pillows. Her palette is serene yet playful with a sophisticated touch. Her Owl print below is a great example of this. Look to her work for natural color schemes that are whimsical and fun.
