My name is Kat Olsson. I’m a freelance illustrator specialising in realistic animal portraiture as well as experimental psychedelic imagery (an odd pairing I know).
I specialise in realistic animal portraiture as well as experimental psychedelic imagery!
My main influences come from my personal connection with spirituality as well as the many worlds around me. I have a love for nature and animals and life itself.
I really enjoy working around people and the art space is a perfect place for that. I hope that the use of this space will lead to better connections with fellow artists in York, allow for greater idea generation, and more experimental opportunities.
I suppose to answer the question of 'what is art for?'. I would have to say that art is everything, it makes up every part of our world and every creation. I also believe that everyone has the ability to make art and enjoy it. That's part of the beauty of it.
