"Bright Future" Drawing

Kathy Gales produces art that communicates vivid enthusiasm for the created with an unexpected edge. Based in the South East of England she is surrounded by fantastic natural and urban landscape that inspires her.
Kathy uses various methods such as mixing different media and collage and finding innovative materials and combinations to convey texture, pattern and colour. She often combines graphic line with looser paint technique on clay boards.
Sharing her ideas and helping others to expand their own artistic skills is an important part of Kathy's artistic life and she regularly enjoys running workshops that enable her students to learn new techniques.
Her career highlights include designing a cover illustration for Oxford Press, selection for a local permanent, public art commission and recently being featured in the Artist and Illustrators magazine's ‘We Present’ two-page feature.
