Bio

Kathy Frevert Levenson

My goal is to create art that has meaning and brings new appreciation to our role in caring for our earth and ourselves.  May future generations enjoy what we enjoy.  

I started painting in pastels around the year 2000. While stuck at home during the pandemic, I decided to try oil painting. That painting adventure continues. I now have a daily paint practice and find great joy and discovery with each painting.

As an artist, I aim to share wonderous sights found in nature and joyful living.  

Education

My more formal art education includes instruction by Hugh Lifson at Cornell College of Iowa, classes at Kline Academy of Fine Art in Los Angeles, the Corcoran Art Gallery in Washington DC, and lessons and workshops with wonderful artists and teachers, including: Sharon Weaver, Colleen Howe, Connie Randmaa, Anita Wolff, Terri Ford, and Liz Haywood-Sullivan.
