Contemporary British Artist
by Katherine Palmers-Needham
From the beauty of nature to the contrast of buildings against the sky, I draw inspiration from the world around me. Painting has been my passion and source of peace for as long as I can remember. I love exploring colour, texture, and creating stories told through art.
Over my career, I’ve painted in studios across London and Scotland, creating pieces for a variety of clients
from hotels and restaurants, to private homes and offices. I enjoy filling a wall with colour and working
in multiples to create a work with depth, balance, and layering.
I invite you to explore my collections. For a custom commission or to learn more, contact me today.

Customer Testimonials
“A real find! Caught our eye on Insta, then saw some stunning new pieces on her site. Katherine was very responsive and kindly sent us some work in progress shots. We
fell in love with this radiant piece. Love her work.”
Gregor and LauraPerthshire
“I had seen Katherine’s work at an Open Studios and loved her use of colour. I commissioned a piece for my husband’s special birthday. I gave her an idea of the size I wanted and the colours that he particularly loved. Katherine created a beautiful painting - just lovely. We were both thrilled.”
AngelaChiswick “We are thrilled with our painting from Katherine - it now hangs in pride of place in our bedroom in our new house and brings real warmth to the space. Thank you so much!”
