Hi! My name is Katy Elmore, and I’m an artist based in Asheville, NC. I enjoy exploring all facets of art-making and love sharing my creativity with others through both teaching and creating. I taught art in public schools for nine years before transitioning to part-time work to focus more on my own artwork. Along the way, I’ve realized that making and exploring art, whether it be on my own or with others, is really what I’ve always dreamed of doing.

Me?

I’m originally from southern West Virginia and have loved creating art since I was a child. I attended Concord University in Athens, WV, where I earned degrees in both Art Education and Studio Art. After college, I spent several years working as a public school art teacher. The past few years have proven quite a transition for me, but I’m finally ready to settle in and work on my own body of art while also bringing art to the community as much as possible.
