About Me

Hello!

My name is Kate Lanxon and I’m an artist based in Hertfordshire, in the UK.

After dabbling in various different mediums throughout my life, including watercolours, acrylics, gouache, and graphite, I discovered oil painting in early 2025.

During 2025, I took classes with various artists, most notably a week-long painting retreat with Alai Ganuza in San Sebastián, Spain. This was where I learnt how to paint alla prima (wet-on-wet) and discovered Alai’s unique approach to colour theory.

Since then I have built on this foundation and developed my own painting style, which is vibrant, colourful, and painterly.
