Kathy Ferrara
Duxbury - Sights and Delights

Artist Statement

I see beauty in the simplest of things:

     Dew drops on a spiderweb.
          A pat of butter melting on a hot scone. 
               Light glistening on the facet of a cut crystal vase.
                    The grain patterns on a piece of wood. 

Through my art, I strive to convey the beauty that is all around us, and evoke delight in those who may see the world through my point of view. It is my hope to remind people to take a moment out of their fast-paced, techno-saturated lives and look, take notice, and appreciate what is, all too often, taken for granted.

Look up at the sky often, for you will never see the same one again.

Artist Bio

A graduate of the Vesper George School of Art in Boston, Kathy enjoyed a career as a fashion illustrator and retail artist for 30 years before devoting all her time to find art.

Her commercial work has given her strong drawing and design skills which carry over into her dynamic watercolors. She has studied with several highly respected artists including Tony Couch, Alvaro Castagnet, Tony van Hasselt and Marshall Joyce. Her work has been represented in many galleries on the South Shore and on the Cape, and she has won numerous awards over the years. 

Her style is rich in color and depth, with impeccable attention to detail. She draws with precision, yet paints with a soft elegance, drawing you into her paintings, visually wetting the appetite. 

Kathy is a member of the Plymouth Guild of Arts, the Duxbury Art Association, and is a Signature Member of the New England Watercolor Society.
