Katherine Irish
When Katherine Irish returned to New Mexico, she made a conscious decision to contribute beauty to the world through art. The infinite variety of color and abstract patterns found in New Mexico skies offer a limitless source of inspiration. Cloud composition and colors are ephemeral. However, what is constant is that the beginning and end of each day is marked by the rising and setting of the sun. The beauty found in the skies inspires us. Irish’s paintings are an effort to bring focused attention on our shared connection with the natural order.
Irish has an impressive list of accomplishments including: IAPS Eminent Pastelist, Master Pastelist of the Pastel Society of America, Distinguished Member of the Pastel Society of New Mexico, Distinguished Member of the Arizona Pastel Artist's Association, Signature Member of the Pastel Society of the West Coast, Master Pastelist of the Southeastern Pastel Society, Signature Member of the Women Artists of the West, and American Artists Professional League – Associate with Distinction.
