Your teacher
Kate Marr is a professional artist from Bournemouth, UK, and is best known for her lively and atmospheric paintings based on locations from the Dorset coastline and the New Forest. Kate loves to create pieces in an intuitive way, focusing on evoking the mood and feeling of a place by using expressive marks. These works are created imaginatively, inspired by sketches, photos and memories of walks in these areas or en plein air. Kate uses high quality art materials in a variety of mixed media and technique. Her work has been featured in nationwide magazines including the Leisure Painter. She is a member of the friends of the ROI, Artists in Dorset, Paint Dorset and Cad Arts and exhibits with some of these groups as well as arranging her own solo shows. Her work can be found in private art collections around the world.Kate grew up in Surrey and having a creative spirit, was always painting and drawing. Pursuing this passion, she completed a foundation course in art and design in 2005 at the Surrey Institute of Art and Design. In 2008 Kate completed a fine art BA (Hons) degree at Plymouth University. After this she had a few exhibitions, then whilst working in Oxford Street in retail management, she worked part time as a portrait artist taking commissions. By 2016, Kate had decided to become a full time professional artist. Initially she was living in London and then the opportunity came to move to Bournemouth and paint the beautiful scenery there. She then focused her attention on painting seascapes and landscapes.
