Hello, I'm Kate, an artist and surface pattern designer based in beautiful Vancouver, Canada.
Originally from Russia, I made a life-changing decision to relocate to Canada at the age of 27. The biggest adventure of my life has also completely changed the course of my career: from the hotel industry to a manufacturing company office, to a graphic design program, to surface pattern design.
I find inspiration in every flower I encounter, in the rich textures of the great outdoors on my hikes, from the colour palettes of impressionists, music and beautiful architecture from around the world. My absolute favourites are large-scale botanical and floral pattern designs with saturated colour palettes and painterly textures. Yet I love creating geometric and abstract patterns in between the endless florals. My artistic and design tools include watercolours, gouache, Procreate, Photoshop and Illustrator.
My mission is to create art that makes people happy and contributes to the beauty of our world.
I welcome collaboration and commission enquiries, and I am always happy to make new friends on Instagram!
