Hi, thank you for being here!

I taught myself to paint with oils in 2022 after being laid off at the end of the pandemic. Super fun and cool timing…

In that unexpected pause, I rediscovered something I had been missing, a space to create just for the sake of creating. Painting became a way for me to explore the things I love, the things I’m feeling, and all the different versions of myself that I’m constantly becoming.

That’s really what being a muse means to me.

You don’t have to fit into one box. You can be polished and messy, sweet and spicy, serious about your dreams, and still have a little fun along the way. You can change your mind. You can try something completely new just because you want to. You can reinvent yourself as many times as you like.

My paintings are reflections of that modern girlhood, the stories, feelings, humor, nostalgia, confidence, contradictions, and little moments that make us who we are.

And Kate Muse is becoming more than just a collection of paintings. It’s a creative world built around the things I love, art, stories, fashion, self-expression, and all the unexpected ideas that come along the way.

So take a look around, find something that feels like you, and don’t forget, you are the muse!
