Katherine Nelson is a nationally and internationally exhibited artist, educator, and juror based in the D.C./Baltimore region. Her charcoal, pastel, and graphite drawings capture the beauty and resilience of rural landscapes—especially the iconic wheat fields and working farms of the Palouse. With a background shaped by living in Europe, the Middle East, and across the United States, Katherine brings a global perspective to her art, illuminating dramatic light and texture in scenes of farmland, forests, and cityscapes.
Her artwork has been featured in solo and group exhibitions throughout the USA and Europe, as well as on TV, CD covers, and in journals and magazines. Each drawing is professionally photographed and scanned using industry-leading technology, ensuring that every print—on archival paper, canvas, or metal—faithfully preserves the original’s detail and depth. Prints are produced and shipped from the USA, available to individual collectors, interior designers, hotels, restaurants, and businesses.
Katherine’s work honors the legacy and quiet strength of rural communities, inviting viewers to experience the enduring beauty of the land. Her deep connection to the Palouse and years of exhibiting in Washington and Idaho continue to inspire her art and storytelling.
