About the Artist
Hi! I'm Katrina, Artist and Owner of Katrina Rumsey Artistry.
I have always loved art and animals. I grew up going to the Toledo Art Museum and Toledo Zoo regularly, but fell in love with painting in my sixth grade art class, when I first painted a watercolor duckling. By the end of high school, my art led me to State and Regional Finalist for the Ohio Governor's Youth Art Exhibition, Third-Place Finalist in the Perrysburg Historic Art Contest, and multiple scholarships.
​
Although I began college as an art major, my passion for the natural and behavioral sciences led me to pursue my Bachelors of Science in Recreation and Tourism Management from Georgia Southern University. I founded Katrina Rumsey Artistry in October 2022 to combine all aspects of my background in youth recreation, art education, and plant wildlife research by providing fine art prints and custom artwork reminiscent of my favorite things.
Now living in Southeastern Michigan, I find inspiration in the great outdoors and daily life, and aim to connect people to their communities, families, and selves through environmental and creative education. ​

When I'm not painting, you'll find me gardening, reading, cooking, exploring my small town, or watching the birds at our feeders.
