New Gallery Representation

I've been just about crawling out of my skin in anticipation of delivering work to new and current galleries for the upcoming summer season. After painting like crazy, and traveling even more, I'm happy to announce that I'm now represented by five wonderful galleries. See where they're located by clicking HERE. Most recently added are Kelly Galleries in Woodbury, MN and Hudson, WI, and Fine Line Designs Gallery in North Ephraim, WI (Door County). I'm happy to say that all of the galleries I am represented in have a nice assortment of my paintings.

Roxie

I was blessed to be asked to paint a portrait of a young puppy recently. Everything about this dog is adorable, from her beautiful, clear eyes to her pink belly. Her name is Roxie. After taking a photo of the painting for my portfolio, I couldn't get a tune out of my head.... "I'm too sexy for my --" Do you see it too? She is so precious!

About Kathleen

Kathleen (Kay) Eaton left a career in graphic design and marketing to focus, full-time, on fine art oil painting, with an emphasis on portraits and figurative works. She also participates in a variety of plein air events throughout the country.

“After a lifetime in creative fields, I decided I didn’t want to get to my death bed and wish I had attempted to develop my skill as a fine artist,” she says. In that light, her work has a certain spirituality to it that fascinates and captivates her audience.

She has studied with Daniel Gerhartz, Everett Raymond Kinstler, C.W. Mundy, Nancy Guzik, Rose Frantzen, Judith Carducci, Peggy Baumgaertner, James Hempel and Andrew Orr.

In 2012, she was artist-in-residence at the Neville Public Museum in Green Bay, WI, and in 2013 she had a solo exhibit in the main lobby of the University of Michigan Health System in Ann Arbor, MI. Her work can be seen at River's End Gallery in Waukesha, WI, and at DCF Gallery in Grosse Point, MI, as well as on her website at www.kathleeneatonart.com.
