Life is moving along and I, Kathy Braud, am so grateful for my interest and joy in painting.
I have developed a series of watercolor paintings that add color and joy to my life, whenever I revisit them.
It is surprising what carries us along in the direction we seek and also what shuts us off.
I am wishing all of you happy sailing along your course of life. Kathy Braud.
Also -- Be aware, I have a large selection of paintings at home, many are not on FAA. I have painted for a long time.....

May 9, 2020  Greetings

Greetings! Hope you are enjoying Spring 2020. The grass and bushes and trees are greening up and we are excited to be seeing the signs of Spring!
P.S. It also snowed for a short time today in Central Minnesota.
Looking forward to getting some of my newly made watercolor art on-line at FAA.
Best wishes to you and yours, Kathy Braud RRWS, NSWS

2019 Fall Kathy Braud Update

October 7th, 2019

Hi there! I Hope you have enjoyed my website.
Life has been busy of late here in Little Falls, MN. Art opportunities happened here with the Little Falls Arts and Crafts Fair in early September and ~ 100,000 people that show up. My display was accessible to the public at the Shoppes of Little Falls, which has 60 some venders inside this wonderful store year round.
I attended a wonderful Paint Out in the Wisconsin wild areas at a special camp where we can interact and enjoy other artists, learn from each other, paint inside a lovely hall or paint en plaine aire, and we have good sleeping and eating while there this fall.
My Central Minnesota Watercolor group hosted a workshop by Jennifer Stone, from South Dakota, at the Paramount Arts Center in St. Cloud, MN. We worked on learning the new concepts of watercolor, mixed media and collage that she teaches. We had a great time! And I learned a lot. Some new works of mine will be showing up on FAA soon.
Yes, my art was accepted!!! Into this years’ 2019 Red River Watercolor Society National Exhibition held at the Hjemkomst Center in Moorhead, MN. as an exhibition over the summer. It is home now and this new art, Ruffled Feathers 5, 22 x 30 image, is also on my FAA website.
This fall, another wonderful new piece of mine, was chosen to be on display at the 2019 Fifth Annual NorthStar National Watermedia Juried Exhibition. It is currently on display at the Lakeville Area Arts Center, in Lakeville, MN from Oct 3 – Nov 14, 2019. This piece is also full sized. I do have signature status in both national societies.
Have a great autumn and enjoy the colors! And Remember, paintings keep their color all year round!

Enjoying the Paint Out

October 1st, 2018

I belong to a wonderful group of artist folks who come together once a year for a Paint Out. We book a bible camp facility a year ahead and come use the camp when the kids have gone back to school. The artists’ enjoy the get together of wonderful meals we do not have to cook. And we spend social time together. Indoor cabin rooms provide for rest. You bring your own bedding and pillows, etc.
As a group we each easily paint 8 hours or more. Those who want to paint in plaine aire have many options of local parks, roadways, lakes and farmlands to enjoy. Those of us who wish to stay inside, out of the weather, make the most of a great hall with wonderful light and tables. We are so fortunate to be able to share our artistic talents together and sometimes even learn new art making methods .
Consider a “paint out” experience as a wonderful possibility! You might be surprised how enjoyable it is.
