A wild dog’s face emerges with piercing intensity, its amber eyes alive and watchful against soft sepia and cream tones. The rate animal’s slender head and large ears are rendered with meticulous grace, while the body dissolves into gestural marks and muted colour - a portrait that captures both the creature’s particular presence and the fragility of its existence in an uncertain world.
Katie Simpson is a Kenyan painter whose work is an act of witness to the animals, landscapes, and fragile ecologies that shaped her from childhood. Combining ancient techniques with contemporary paint effects, she gives pigments freedom to roam the canvas,  capturing wildlife in fleeting, abstracted moments that feel both luminous and urgent. Trained at Charles H. Cecil Studios in Florence and created in her Nanyuki studio, her work is driven by a deep belief in the fragility of the natural world  and the power of colour to bear witness to it.
