Collection: Katie Roberts

Katie Roberts is a contemporary artist and designer based in Cornwall and has been represented by Beside The Wave since 2024. She studied Art Foundation at Falmouth University before completing a degree in Graphic Communication at Bath Spa University. Following her studies, she worked for eight years as an art director and designer in London, collaborating with international clients across branding, packaging and digital design. 

Roberts’ practice centres on still life painting, with a focus on colour, form and composition. Inspired by her surroundings in Cornwall and by travels abroad, particularly in the Mediterranean, she creates compositions drawn from observation and imagination. Her work frequently depicts table settings, food and flowers, using a considered palette to structure each painting.

Working primarily in acrylic on canvas, paper and wood, her paintings balance simplified forms with detailed, painterly mark-making, exploring the visual qualities of everyday objects, light and arrangement.
