Description

This fortnight, we bring you a really fun interview episode with the talented floral still life painter Kate Quinn. We talk about all of the amazing things that Kate does in her art business from original oil paintings to prints to tableware and bespoke art classes with her business partner Emily Day. Kate talks about “Bloom” the bespoke art experiences that she created in partnership with fellow Brisbane based artist Emily Day. She shares how they wanted to create a really special painting experience hosted in beautiful locations all over Australia. Her journey into her art career is an interesting one, with a social work background, Kate focused for many years raising her family and she says that she always had a creative hobby on the side. She started painting because she was really inspired by oil painter Laura Jones (link below). Her art life really changed when she entered the Jumbled Art Superstar competition that she won in 2020. The next day she went to the bank and set up an official business bank account. Kate talks about how she never sat down to plan her business rather she dived head first and just tried things out along the way. She shares the evolution of developing a homewares product range which is printed locally through Applik (link below). Kate talks about being an exhibiting artist and shares information about her upcoming show called “SEASONS” running from 11 - 16 July at Latrobe Art Space. The official opening will be on Thursday 13th July from 6pm. If you are from Brisbane go and check it out!
