About the Artist
Katelyn B. Garcia Knight (b.1993) is a Bucks County based ceramic and academic fine artist. She concentrates in functional and nonfunctional ceramic pottery and sculpture. Katelyn’s artwork is a material and technical pursuit of aesthetic creation. Her work has been influenced by the literary perception of woman of Greek mythology, academic anatomy, nature, variations of texture and high contrast and interesting surface finishes to create dynamic pieces.
Katelyn has a love for art education and sharing information to all who will listen. She currently is a ceramic technician and instructor at YayClay! and a 3D arts technician (steel, cast metals, wood, mold making, academic sculpture) at Bucks County College.
