First Friday opening reception for artist, Katheryn Krouse, a full time artist in Kansas City who takes pride in communicating how she sees the world through the lens of low vision. Krouse is visually impaired with a rare form of macula degeneration known as Stargardt’s Disease. Krouse communicates this in her work with thick impasto texture, and vibrant color palettes. Audiences are encouraged to touch and feel the tactile nature of these large scale paintings. Meet the artist, a proud new mom, and her little masterpiece, at First Fridays August 1st at the Arts KC Gallery.
