A Message from Katz

*A playful, creative mischief~maker by nature, I consider myself something of a ‘midwife’ to characters that kind of plop through my pencil onto the page!

While I am more known for my children’s book illustrations (he best~known of which is ‘The Wonky Donkey’) my most exciting and alluring exploration, is the dance of peeling back to get out of my own way and see what magic comes of the spontaneous mess that spills out on the page…

The product of which you see in many of the pieces shared here.

There’s something ridiculously exciting and mysterious that happens when we drop right into the moment, and…simply…follow…the impulses…

This is what I also teach and facilitate: reclaiming our natural, authentic self~expression to ignite, delight and empower our dance with life.

My journal is my trusty companion, holding me through thick and thin, no matter what spills out…

Sometimes a wise one calling me to journey with them and listen to their whispers; other times, a glorious, raw~ious mess that comes out to undress itself on the page and simply express.

The process of creating and expressing is so richly ripe with endless learning and marvellous magic…

And a lifetime of awaiting pages to explore upon!*
