  Featured Artist     bio:          
  Studio Map     Katy Zare grew up on the east side of St. Paul and displayed an obvious creative spirit from early childhood. That spirit was nurtured throughout her youth with a lot of encouragement from teachers, family and friends. Following a strong arts involvement during high school, Katy attended St. Paul College and received an associate degree in Commercial Art. After a few entry level jobs in that field, Katy married in 1987 and went on to raise 3 daughters who are now 20, 16 & 14. Today, Katy's art is a reflection of self-teaching through the study of art by various artists she admires and a lot of hands-on experience. While most known for her custom portrait work in pastels, besides watercolor and graphite, Katy has been working more lately with acrylic on canvas and has found it to be very freeing. Additionally, in an attempt to follow her own desire of needing to simplify, Katy has found her own way to allow the beauty and colors of art to function in the everyday world, by creating a line of functional art pieces including furniture, glassware, and apparel.
