about Katie White

Katie White’s art is heavily inspired by nature. Drawn to the horizon line, Katie brings focus to the space where land or water meets the sky, a quiet pause at the end of the day as the sun sets, a deep exhale, or a place to root yourself to the earth. Many of her pieces are of soft, serene atmospheres that evoke a peaceful emotion, while others pull you in with bold colors, telling their own story. She infuses meditative practices with her watercolor process, teaching others how to use the medium as a tool to ease anxiety. A long-time friend of Palmetto Bluff, Katie is excited to come back and visit with the many friends she has made over the years.

Welcome Reception

FLOW Gallery + Workshop | Complimentary but registration is required

Join us in warmly welcoming watercolor artist Katie White as Palmetto Bluff’s June Artist in Residence! Katie breathes life into her artwork through thoughtful meditation and mindfulness as her brush strokes the page. With a focus on nature and the gentleness found in blank space, many of her works invoke a feeling of peace, while others dazzle with bright and bold colors. In keeping with her inspiration found in nature, Katie will be giving a live demonstration in the FLOW Gallery + Workshop courtyard over light refreshments.

Back to Basics: Watercolor

FLOW Gallery + Workshop | $75 (plus tax + processing fees)

Meditate into the Medium

FLOW Gallery + Workshop | $105 (plus tax + processing fees)

Join us for an artistic escape and let the day melt away. Beginning with a guided meditative practice to bring forth creativity and inspiration, Katie will show participants how to bring feelings of relaxation and meditation into their watercolor works. The relaxation will continue after an hour of thoughtful meditation with a soothing glass of wine. Katie will use this time to answer questions, and participants will continue experiencing and experimenting with the watercolor medium.

Saturday June 22, 2024 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Inspirational Journey with Watercolor

FLOW Gallery + Workshop | $75 (plus tax + processing fees)

Enjoy the soothing nature surrounding Wilson Village as Katie White leads a morning walk. While on the brief (10 – 15 min.) walk, participants will watch for any nature they find eye-catching, take a photo, and return to the gallery. They will use this picture for inspiration (color, composition, etc.) to create a watercolor that reflects the beauty they found. Participants are encouraged to bring a phone to take inspirational photos.
