  ABOUT THE JUROR

            Kathy Tate

Kathy Tate would be the first to confess that you never know which direction life is going to take you. A sixth generation Texan, Tate was born and raised in north central Texas and never thought she would end up an award winning still life artist.  
Even though she excels in still life, the love of architecture and life in Texas are often subjects in her work. “I like to keep my work fresh and achieve this by incorporating a variety of subject matter.”

Tate’s work has received numerous awards, including most recently, the John Steven Jones Award at the Bosque Art Classic.  She has exhibited at the National Cowboy Museum's "Small Works, Great Wonders", the Briscoe Museum's "Night of Artists", "The Russell" CM Russell Museum, Oil Painters of America, Greenhouse Gallery's Salon International, Mountain Oyster Club, Bosque Art Classic, and the Gilcrease Museum.  She is a member of Oil Painters of America, American Women Artists, a Signature member of Cowgirl Artists of America, and is on the roster of Artists in Residence with the Texas Commission on the Arts
