Kathryn Willis

I'm Kathy Willis, an Arizona native residing in Flagstaff, a late-comer painter, blogger, and trailrunner. I've long been inspired by my southwest homeland, however it was a life-changing journey walking the 500 mile Camino de Santiago in Spain in celebration of my fiftieth birthday, that I discovered a desire to express myself through art. Now, after several years dabbling in art classes, and sixty fast approaching, the urgency to commit to my painting journey has taken root. As they say, "If not now...When?" I started this blog to motivate my daily painting practice, more easily share my work, and hopefully encourage other late-comers as well. I will be posting new small paintings at least weekly. Thank you for visiting my blog. Buen Camino

"Trail to Sabino Falls", by Kathryn Willis

Trail to Sabino Falls, 12x16" oil on panel, Kathryn Willis

The desert is ever changing and spectacular year round. A couple of weeks ago I painted this fall scene standing in the warm sunlight, high on a hilltop looking out to the falls and golden cottonwoods below. Today we had snow in the mountains, and a record rainfall in Tucson yesterday. A desert with water is a delight to behold. I hope this painting captures my delight.
