Katie Kight
Watercolor artist and illustrator
Welcome and thank you for your interest in my art. I’m glad you’re here!
I’ve enjoyed many forms of creative expression over the years. Most recently, in 2021, I discovered my fascination for painting with watercolors. Since then, I have been dedicated to honing my artistic skills and creating works of art that capture the essence of my subjects. This creative practice allows me to express my appreciation for my surroundings, showcasing subjects that range from everyday objects, serene landscapes and seascapes, to people, pets, and wildlife.
My artwork is known for its soft textures and thoughtful details, bringing warmth and beauty to living spaces across the country. I create each piece with the intention to bring a sense of joy and to serve as a reminder to find beauty in the simple wonders of life.
I’m often reminded of the positive impact that I can have on people’s lives through my art. It brings joy, rekindles memories, offers peace and comfort, and strengthens connections that can sometimes only be done through a memory or gift that touches the heart. This is a privilege that I cherish deeply.
I have now extended my love of watercolor to the pages of children’s books. With each brushstroke, I help stories come alive and find their way into the hearts of young readers - sparking delight and imagination with every turn of the page.
Whether you choose to enjoy my art in a book or on products, as prints or original paintings—I’m deeply grateful for the space you’ve made in your life for my art. Your support is a constant inspiration.
