A course by Katie Putt
Katie is a self-taught watercolor artist and illustrator. Her love for watercolor began as a hobby, and she would take her art supplies on her travels. She soon found that her illustrations were more special to her than photographs, as they felt more like original postcards of an important moment in her life.
Her hobby began to blossom as she started painting more, working on commissions, and eventually editorial pieces for magazines and books. She went on to start her own business creating products with her illustrations, which led her to win the New Designer to Watch in 2019 and 2020. Alongside her business and commissions, she also teaches watercolor workshops.
