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

“Acrylic paint, pastel, and oil stick on canvas are the primary mediums of my work. Loose, linear markings and washes are combined with delicate and bold painterly marks taken from palettes or directly from the tube. A variety of tools including brushes, scrapers, rags and my hands are utilised. Mark making is complete when the canvas is struck with fast intent and takes on a life of its own. The idea is to produce a surface of marks, colour, texture, and forms that result in a seamless, undetectable balancing act.” - Kate Cox
