I'M KATE
I am a full-time visual artist, author, and playwright whose work blends curiosity, storytelling, and a love for everyday beauty. As a child, I filled sketchbooks with girls in flowing dresses and dogs disguised as humans. Over the years, my paintings and designs have reached audiences worldwide, appearing in retailers such as Target, Pier One, and World Market, as well as on television and in major motion pictures includingĀ Transparent,Ā Medium,Ā Glee, andĀ Twenty-One Jump Street.
For the past six years, I’ve been immersed in my daily painting practice, creating one small gouache painting every day. This discipline has sharpened my style and inspired me to share my passion for gouache through books, workshops, and online courses. I graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in Painting and Drawing, and I now live and work in Salt Lake City, Utah, where I continue to paint, teach, and daydream daily.
MY STORY
The daughter of strict well-meaning parents, I grew up thinking that I had only one choice in life. Go to school, get a good job, and build a stable life for myself. While this laser focus led me to a high-paying career in my 20s, it didn't leave me with any sense of who I was and what brought me joy.
After realizing I was too young to feel stuck, I walked away from it all and embarked on the ultimate journey of self-discovery. And I learned that once you step into who you really are, there's no going back.
If you're ready to walk away from your own limiting beliefs and build a life you love, I am ready to lead the way.

"This time last year, I was a frazzled mother of 2, just barely getting by. Thanks to Taylor's courses, I'm a happier, healthier person for myself and my family."
