With a sharp eye for colour and a quirky sense of humour, East Vancouver-based artist Kat McPhee’s vibrant, expressionist portraits and mixed media prints have quickly earned a loyal following. Applying elements of graffiti and animation as inspiration, Kat uses a broad palette that includes oil pastels, acrylics and spray paint to add density and texture to her pieces.
McPhee’s commissioned work, specifically pet portraits have been showcased at numerous galleries and restaurants in East Vancouver. Her most recent collection includes a series of eccentric, satirical animal portraits, pop culture portraits and skatedeck art. All of her works boast unique elements inspired by street art and surrealism to create truly one-of-a-kind pieces.
Kat’s interests don’t end with art. She also has a blossoming clothing brand Mister, "We Are the Weirdos" that embraces individuality, creativity and diversity. mrwearetheweirdos.com
