About the Artist
Born in Vancouver, B.C. Kit attended the University of British Columbia, graduating with a Bachelor of Science in 1974. Throughout her life, Kit has always drawn and painted and although her professional career took her into the world of computers, art always remained a strong interest.
Kit moved to Ottawa, Ontario after graduating from UBC where she began to paint landscapes in oil. She was represented by the Inspiration Art Gallery in Ottawa and by the Firehall Gallery in Perth, Ontario. She took the opportunity to study at the Ottawa School of Art and exhibited her work at the BCAL Clothesline Fair in Ottawa (a juried show) for several years.
After moving to Kelowna, BC in 1992, a busy career prevented her from pursuing art for nearly 15 years. Returning in 2008 to painting, Kit has picked up where she left off. Continuing to expand her knowledge and develop her technique and vision, she enjoys seeing where the journey leads.

Artist's Statement
|
"As my art changes and evolves, I am reminded that nature is forever changing and at different times offers us fleeting special looks into the world around us. I want to share what my artist’s eye, and imagination, sees with others. Working in a variety of media allows me to choose the best process for an image or idea. "
