Kathryn Hartman

Biography

Contact:

After 20 year of Marketing Management in the IT industry Kathryn found that the higher up the corporate ladder she worked the less creative involvement was possible.  So when circumstances allowed in 2002 she undertook a Diploma of Visual Arts at Northbridge School of Visual Arts, which opened up new directions for her.

Initially Kathryn focused on acrylic painting achieving early recognition with numerous sales and first prize at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.  Since then Kathryn has particularly enjoyed mosaic and digital photography with sales and prizes in both mediums.

Kathryn has recently completed her Diploma of Fine Art at TAFE that enabled her to explore different media including oils, life drawing and sculpture.
