Welcome to the ArtsFindlay website.

Feast your eyes on amazing original artwork made from textiles. Kate has been creating fabric paintings since 2014 using applique methods and mixing in many other print and paint techniques too.

You will find original art for your home here, as well as landscape and wildlife prints. In the shop, browse textile kits to make and panels of fabric printed with Kate’s unique designs. Also a collection of greetings cards, from Kate’s original art.

If you enjoy making your own work, check out the new range of applique kits using fabric designed by Kate.
