BIO
Kate Cox, a New Zealand-born abstract painter, grew up in the seaside suburbs of Auckland. Her family recently relocated to Kerikeri in the stunning Bay of Islands. She now lives in a 100-year-old character-filled country villa, where she can balance family life and professional practice.
She has worked in commercial interiors in Auckland and London after earning a Bachelor of Design. While working, she pursued her passion for becoming a professional artist by taking fine art courses with mentoring.
She currently paints full-time and is most recognised for her large abstract paintings and abstract landscapes, which she does primarily with acrylics, oil and pastels on canvas. She has been a finalist for the Walker and Hall Waiheke Art Award and the Estuary Art and Ecology Award.
