After leaving school I worked in photography, illustration, fashion design, and fine art, travelling far and wide. I wear two caps ‘Kate Cree Artist’ and ‘Kate Cree tutor’. I am passionate about both as I love to engage with people and inspire them.
In 2011 I created the Forever Faye Art Foundation (FFAF) in memory of our daughter Faye, where I teach beginners to advanced adult students in all mediums and styles ranging from Pissarro to Rothko.
