So I’ve been tearing up unsuccessful prints. Having fun with a ruler and a stapler. But regretting all the many dozens that I have thrown away without knowing what fun this is. by @kateshepherd235

From many years back, I made this series at @dieudonnepaper where we wore rubber boots because of the constant spraying. taken in Krakow Witkin Gallery by @kateshepherd235

I’m so honored to have won a #guggenheimfellowship among some very talented recipients. Bravo and brava. This is truly a humbling experience. I’m grateful to all my recommenders and friends who helped me. This may have been my eight time applying? I can’t wait to start the project. Emojis lovingly made by @elissaschappell, a muse, one of many. #guggfellows2026 by @kateshepherd235

From decades ago, made lovingly with @rachelgladfelter at Dieu Donne when it was in Manhattan. We let the tips flail out. It’s an edition. I wanted the blue and red to be equal, one not dominating the other. #kateshepherd by @kateshepherd235

The Frick has sketch nights once a month and @rosenworld was generous to invite me to join her. It was a blast. I’m trying to let go of academic tropes. (I studied in various academies for years) but they are winning in some moments. Drawing figures is a lot funnier than drawing flowers but I like that too. taken in The Frick Collection by @kateshepherd235

Sunset on corrugated cardboard 2025
“Rewilding” opens this Saturday, February 7 from 3-5pm at Darren Knight Gallery in Sydney, Australia (@darrenknightgallery) and is on view through March 21.
I’m one of nine artists featured in this exhibition that explores landscape, with all works created from 2020-2025.
Organized, by John Melick (@melick_john), the exhibition highlights the conversation surrounding deep connections to
nature and an acute environmental awareness that resonates across both continents.
Other artists include:
