Kathi Rudko

Kathi Rudko is a painter who draws on decades of teaching, art history studies, and workshops with renowned Canadian and American artists, working in watercolour, acrylic, oil, mixed media, encaustic, and collage. Her work embodies contemporary impressionism, characterized by loose brushwork in landscapes, edgy figurative pieces, and a keen attention to movement and texture. She explores the preservation of natural beauty, especially of Vancouver Island, evoking deep reverence, wonder, and the fleeting emotional resonance found in moments of quiet observation.
