Kathryn Gastelum

As an Arizona artist residing in Tucson, I find abstraction thought provoking, progressive and sophisticated which becomes my own improvisation in color on canvas. I'm inspired by our stunning colorful Southwest skies along with Jazz music which translates into rhythmic and harmonious compositions on both on my silk scarves and my paintings created with oil and cold wax medium. I received my BFA in Graphic Design from the U of Arizona and later studied Interior Design, joining ASID as an Allied Member for several years. As a full time professional artist, my recent career highlights have been exhibiting in major art expos such as Red Dot Miami, ArtExpo New York Art, Santa Fe and receiving awards and press with several art competitions for abstraction.
