Getting to know the artist. Her views, insights and ideas.

Name: Kate Ramos
Location: Angus, Ontario, Canada

I have lived in Ontario most of my life. I am a nature lover, who canoes into the Canadian wilderness annually. I have spent hundreds of hours canoeing and camping into remote areas. I use a camera to capture images and impressions for my paintings. I am a self-taught artist, with formal training in graphic arts. My hope is to give people the love I feel for nature, when viewing my images. I like to say a little piece of myself goes into each of my paintings.

David Suzuki

I went to see David Suzuki the other day, and I was awed. The message he is trying to get out to the public may be one of the most important pieces of information I have ever heard. A few times during his speech I was moved to tears.
I have spent the last few days trying to think of a way I could contribute to the environment. Of course I already do what most environmentally conscious individuals do.
During his speech I got all sorts of images in my head, for paintings with pro environment meanings. I think I will concentrate on getting those images on canvas for the next little while.
So far every painting I have put on E-Bay has sold. Most have gotten many bids. With different people and collectors alike. I will have to think long and hard about how many shows I attend this year. If these paintings are in such demand I may not have time to travel anywhere. I have been painting non stop for weeks now, just to keep up.
