About Katie Longua
Hello! I’m Kathryn Longua – but you can all me Katie. I’m a student just starting my fifth and final year at Arts and Communications Magnet Academy. I have always been fascinated by art, but it wasn’t till I started at ACMA that I began to develop the skills to create the pictures floating in my mind. I see artistic potential in everything – whether it’s something interesting to paint on, or something new to incorporate into my art.
Color is a very important part of art for me – I love to be surrounded by bright colors. (You might notice this in the way I dress!) For several years I have been coloring with markers and I’m just starting to explore paint. This is the first time I’ve been invited to show my work in a gallery, and I’m very excited!
I’m fascinated by the shapes of the human body. It is rare that I draw anything but figures. I love bringing out stories with body language and expression. I’ve played piano for 10 years, and love music. Often I try to convey the ecstatic feelings of music through art. I feel like it’s a joy and beauty that desperately needs to be let out to the world.
If you’re interested in purchasing a print of anything you see, or have any questions, don’t hesitate to e-mail me. I look forward to hearing from you.
