Katelyn  is a talented visionary artist and award-winning author whose emotionally rich, symbolically layered paintings explore the intersection of healing, transformation, and the human spirit. With a BFA in Studio Art and a master’s degree in Art Therapy, Katelyn brings over 35 years of experience to her craft, blending expressive technique with visionary insight to create works that resonate on both visual and emotional levels.

A turning point in her creative life came after experiencing five heart attacks and undergoing open-heart surgery. During her nine-year recovery, Katelyn began painting her way back to wholeness—creating a powerful body of work centered around the anatomical heart as a sacred symbol of transformation. This series of 110 paintings became both her medicine and her message: that art can be a profound vehicle for emotional, physical, and spiritual healing. Her heart-centered images have since touched viewers around the world, offering a sense of connection, resilience, and hope.

Katelyn’s paintings are intuitive in nature—emerging from a quiet, meditative space where color, form, and symbolic imagery arise organically. Her work often features sacred geometry, feminine figures, and natural motifs, inviting viewers into a multidimensional space where inner and outer worlds meet.

​As an award-winning author, her writing extends these themes of healing and empowerment, offering readers grounded tools and spiritual insight for personal growth. 

Katelyn has a BFA in studio arts, an MA is Human Development, a degree in Art Therapy. She is an Ordained Priestess of the Goddess since 2006, a Kultrun carrier in the Mapuchi lineage and An initiated Peacekeeper in the Tsalagi and the Drikung Kagyu lineages. 

Whether exhibiting art, writing books, or creating high frequency herbals, Katelyn’s work speaks to a wide audience: those seeking beauty, depth, healing and a reminder of the strength, love and light within the human heart.
