About the artist
Kathryn grew up in a family with many creative arts and craftsmen and received encouragement to pursue such things. As a young adult, she enjoyed the design process and using various mediums.

She started keeping an illustrated gratitude journal eight years ago, which opened the door to many creative pursuits.

Tell about it.
