About Kate Strupinski

After receiving a 1st class Degree at Harrow (BA HONS) I went on to complete a Master of Arts at Central Saint Martin's School of Art. I worked as a freelance illustrator for a number of years with my work gracing well known magazines and publications with vibrant and modern illustrations.
In more recent years my work has got more painterly with canvas paintings and mixed media works which I regularly exhibit at various shows throughout the year.
I am a member of several art societies and regularly go out painting en plein air with other artists and enjoy life drawing sessions both in person and online.
I mostly work from my studio in South west London producing mixed media artworks, painting still lives, figurative pieces and semi-abstract works, working towards shows and undertaking commissions.

I enjoy painting in oils, acrylic gouache and combining this with drawing and collage. I work from life and also from reference images and photographs, aswell as painting intuitively. I am inspired by Robert Rauschenberg, Howard Hodgkin, David Hockney, Henri Matisse, Ivon Hitchins.

My work has been featured in group shows at Richmond Arts Society, The Russell Gallery, the Landmark Arts Centre and The Fulham library exhibition space amongst others.
