Kate Taylor

Born in Cambridge, England, Kate Taylor works from her studio, Art Alchemy East, in Toronto, Ontario, and spends summers creating at her Cottage studio in Northern Ontario. A graduate of Western University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts, she studied painting under the internationally renowned artist Paterson Ewen. Coming from a family of professional artists, including her sister Helen Utsal and grandmother Salme Utsal, whose work is in the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Kate draws inspiration from nature. Her art reflects the dynamic interplay of calm and energy she experiences in the natural world, especially at the cottage, where loons, rippling water, and wind through trees fuel her creativity.
