About Kirsten Katz - Australian Artist & Designer

I’m an Australian botanical and modern artist. I paint bold, colourful, one-of-a-kind original works — flowers, colour, the natural world — from my studio in Sydney. My paintings are also available as fine art prints, and a range of homewares, stationery and gifts.

Meet the Artist: Kirsten Katz

Hello, I’m Kirsten — an Australian botanical artist known for bold, colourful, expressive paintings of flowers, native flora and the natural world.
I’m largely self-taught. I’ve been creative my whole life, and painting regularly for over 25 years — long before it was ever a business. It began at home in Sydney when my children were young, as something I simply loved to do, and it never stopped.
My paintings blend painterly detail with modern form — vibrant, distinctive floral and botanical work that celebrates colour above all else.

From Passion to Profession

For most of those years I painted purely for myself. In time, I wanted to learn how my art could live in the world in other ways — so I studied textile, surface and print design, a natural extension of the paintings I was already making.
That opened a door. My original artwork began appearing on licensed collections for brands in Australia and overseas — fabrics, wallpaper, homewares and gifts — and I started creating my own products alongside them: designer tea towels, silk scarves, brooches, earrings and Australian gifts, each one carrying the colour and character of an original painting.
But the paintings have always come first - and everything else I create and design stems from my original art.

"I believe art is more than decoration — it’s a statement of style, a celebration of nature, and a source of everyday joy."
