Kathie Odom
“I call myself a “Nostalgic Impressionist” as a way of identifying the subjects and style of painting that interest me most. No matter which part of America I paint, I am really passionate about plein air and love getting lost in the wonderful process of it all!”
About The Artist: Kathie Odom
Kathie resides with her husband and maintains a studio in the mountains of East Tennessee. She travels extensively and spends much of her time oil painting in the great outdoors. Also, teaching workshops and participating in plein air events occupies much of her calendar. Kathie’s original works have sold internationally, and she is quite proud of her fine art gallery representation.
