I'll be setting up my 10 x 10 tent for the first time June 13th at the 33 Artist's Market in Manito Park June 13th!

Take a moment to check out three of my latest pieces! I've been pretty busy painting lately and have a few new items on my store and available at Pottery Place Plus in downtown Spokane, WA.

New art announcement! Stop by and see three of my most recent bird paintings.

Original artwork by Katie P Garner and others will be exhibited at the Jacklin Arts and Cultural Center in Post Falls, ID March 12 - April 10th. Find out more and see which pieces will be listed for sale at the show!

I'm honored to have my art selected to appear in the Trails End Gallery's 2026 Winterfest juried arts & culture exhibition in Chewelah, WA. "Aspen" (14 x 11 acrylic) and "Seeking the Sun" (11 x 14 acrylic) will be on display there from February 5th to April 4th.

The wait is over! I’ve been busy behind the scenes updating my online presence, and I’m thrilled to share my new website and fully stocked online store with you.

“Seeking the Sun” is a 11 × 14 painting of echinacea flowers painted using acrylics on canvas board. Watch this painting transform from a blocked in underpainting to a finished piece.

I’m so excited to share that I’ve won my first juried show! It’s happening this September at the Liberty Gallery in Spokane WA and is the annual show for the River Ridge Association of Fine Arts or RRAFA for short. I’ve been a member since the first of this year (2025) and have loved every minute I’ve spent with this delightful group of artists.

My art is now on display at Pottery Place Plus, and I couldn’t be more excited! I’m looking forward to sharing my work with the community and working alongside the gifted artists at the gallery. I appreciate the opportunity to showcase my art and thank everyone who has supported me on this journey. If you’re in the area, please visit and check out all the amazing art available there!

‘Little changes’ can affect the future of your work in unexpected ways. Mistakes become opportunities when you find the flexibility to change your expectations.

Taking painting classes from Janene Grende with my son Gavin and learning a lot!

I’ve posted new art and am announcing my new business license!

And so it begins….
