Kate bowen: ARTIST

After nearly a decade of living in India and Myanmar Kate returned to the UK and lives in Suffolk where she is relishing the stunning Constable/Gainsborough landscape, making new work and exploring printmaking in the Gainsborough House Printroom. She has joined the Colchester Arts Society and works en plein air along the river Stour and on the Suffolk coast, where Orfordness holds a fascination.

Paintings are in collections in USA, Europe, South and South East Asia.
