Kat Corrigan: Paint!
- September 16, Curious Suspension .2 September, 2025I added more to this one, because I didn't think having the purple background gave enough motion... still not sure.And I think I need to practice varnishing too... I am not that great at it...But I like this one much better with the green!24x24 acrylic on cradled panel$1150will be at the White Bear Art Center […]
- September 14, Chanel September, 2025It's Sunday afternoon, I'm heading over to Diamond's Coffee Shoppe soon to take down the 30 Dogs in 30 Days show and meet anyone there who can come to pick their painting up! It's really humid and sticky today, and I'm so grateful I am NOT doing an art fair this weekend! We did go […]
- September 12, A Peaceful Summer View September, 2025Sometimes I just need a little break.Painting really does that for me. By trying to translate what I'm looking at into paint on a panel, I have to concentrate on really looking- seeing what is truly in front of me instead of what I expect to see. Painting greenery can be hard because we keep […]

- September 4, Another Commission! September, 2025Isn't this one just great?! I had SO much fun painting it!

- September 3, Another Commission September, 2025Yes, I do spend a lot of time painting commissions! And I love it! Because it keeps me painting- and with every one I do I learn something more about this... passion? Activity? lifestyle? habbit? What IS this that I'm doing anyway? I love to paint! And I love to learn more about what I'm […]
- August 31, Another Commission! August, 2025This is Noodle... I really enjoyed painting this one!

- August 28, Franklin, a Commission August, 2025Nearing the end of August already- it's still incredibly gorgeous weather in Minneapolis, and I was able to appreciate it from a Water Taxi on the Mississippi last night for my friend's birthday celebration~ she hoped to get waves from passersby, because she said every time she sees a Water Taxi SHE waves at THEM! […]

- August 26, Wildfire Sunset August, 2025It has been absolutely transcendent in Minneapolis these last few days... beautiful weather, cool enough for long sleeves, and yet deliciously warm in the sun if you're feeling chilled. The air is clean, the clouds are white, the sky is blue... I've experienced these kinds of days before, but I think that back then I […]
- August 25, Another Commission August, 2025And here is another little kitten! This one is a trade for another artist at the Art Fair at St Kate's- if you didn't know that I accept trades for all kinds of stuff, now you know! I've traded art for other art, for clothes, for gift cards, for babysitting, for dog walking, and even […]
- August 23, Curious Suspension August, 2025This is an otter. I love otters. They swim and play and use their entire bodies to express themselves. That's a good plan for all of us, I think~I do have to admit I don't think this is the best photo of this painting and I want to try taking another one... it really does […]
- August 22, A Commission... August, 2025Yes, I paint commissions all year round, my friends! I love it. It keeps me painting. I admit I'm a bit of a people pleaser and I tend to do those things I promised other people I'd do first, before I do the things I've been wanting to do myself. So having commissions means I […]
- August 21, Cover Under Green August, 2025This is from a photo I took on the south side of Lake Hiawatha, where artist Sean Connaughty regularly works to restore the native plants to create a more natural and healthy Lake Hiawatha- I volunteered on his crew a few times this summer to help with gardening tasks, something that's a little outside my […]
- Aug 18, Double Trunk August, 2025When we were up in Grand Marais in June for the Summer Solstice Pageant at North House Folk School., I was invited out to my friend Liz Sivertson's house because she was moving studios and had some materials to let go of. She gave me a lovely pile of boards and canvases and a sta-wet […]
