Mud Pies by Kathy, Louisville, KY
From creating herself to supporting creative endeavors, the act of creating has always been an integral part of Kathy Preher Reynolds' life. Her passion for creating has led Kathy down many roads. Allowing her to experience the inspiration of the human experience through theatre, photography and now painting.
Born in Louisville, KY, Kathy was constantly curious about the world around her. This brought a profound need and fascination in understanding what shapes us. While she always saw herself as creative she never believed she could pursue art professionally even though she painted regularly. It wasn't until the Covid-19 pandemic that she gave herself the opportunity to truly explore her love of painting. With her industry, entertainment arts, shut down she found she had the time to truly embrace the dream.
It was the transformation she experienced through the Fine Art Mastery Program at the Milan Art Institute that inspired her to soar to new heights and devote herself to the journey into the world of art. Inspired by her past and present experiences of growth, Kathy continually explores the question of how to cultivate love, joy and inspiration.
When not painting in her studio, Kathy enjoys spending time with her husband and 3 children while marveling at the many new and exciting ways life challenges them.
