creativity is my meditation
I’m Kathryn Sturges, a mixed media artist! I started sewing 25 years ago, and began dabbling in visual art 17 years ago. I took five years off creating when I went through struggles in my mid twenties, and then started painting, journaling and sewing again. Doing morning pages and meditation completely transformed my life path, and sent me on the journey of being an artist.
Currently I’m keeping lots of art journals to document my days and process memories. Making handmade journals is a big passion of mine! I also upcycle and create clothes. I see the value in altering my wardrobe, instead of always rushing out to buy something new! Currently I’m also creating Storytelling Art! You can see my new drawings and watercolor art as it comes out on Instagram.
I was a guest blogger on Cut Out and Keep, was featured in an article on Etsy and was a zine reviewer for a project run by Jolie Ruin. My art was featured in the 2020 Coast2Coast Halloween Gallery, which was a great honor! I’m a huge fan of Bust Magazine, and my art made it into the Summer 2021 print edition. My art is in the book, “Illustrated Scripture” by Jen Alward sold on Lulu.
I’m always creating; from sewing to writing to painting illustrations and making eco books…I infuse everything I make with lots of heart! Thanks for visiting my website! I hope you find inspiration here for life and art! Happy Sewing!!
