Katie currently works from her garden studio in Worcestershire, but as a child, she spent summer holidays scouring Cornish beaches, collecting stone and pebbles that resonated with her personal aesthetic - drawn to their shapes, surfaces, colours and textures. With her pockets overflowing, she unknowingly began a lifelong fascination with natural forms shaped by the elements. This early connection to the raw beauty of weathered landscapes remains the foundation of her work today.
