Kate Gundersen

Artist Statement

My meandering life path and curiosity have provided inspiration for a vivid and varied creative life, allowing me rich experiences: “back to the land" child in 70s rural northern California, student of painting and printmaking at Grinnell College, traveler, and worker over the years in Europe, Central America, Africa, and Asia, graduate social work student in New Orleans. In each context, there were new visual experiences, influences, and techniques to explore and absorb. I've worked in stained glass, printmaking, fabric, and abstract painting. Currently residing in a house of my own design, I practice psychotherapy in Sewanee, TN. My latest passion is paper cutting.
