Katherine Streeter lives and works in New York City.
She balances her illustration career with fine art which includes her collage dolls and mixed media paintings.
She believes that everything processed creatively feeds into the work she does commercially, and she often has too many personal projects mapped out in her sketchbooks.
Once upon a time, she had a full time job at Salon.com as the staff illustrator, which helped to fine tune her work, as she created numerous pieces daily under strict deadlines.
Some of her clients include:
The New York Times, Harpers, Warner Brothers, and Target, among others.
She was a panelist for the Society of Publication Design speaker series: 'Do it with Illustration: Under the Influence with Today's Most Arresting Illustrators" Also, being one of 25 artists chosen for The American Illustration 25 year Time Line exhibit, her work is traveling globally in honor of the 25th anniversary of the annual book. Prior to this, she was invited into the contemporary illustration exhibit The Fabulous Coloured Pencils of the World, hosted by Cultural Association Teatrio in Rome , which included 43 women artists from around the world.
Her work has been highlighted in many industry publications for art and illustration. Most recently:
