Katie Barnes Studio

'THE ORIGINALS' COLLECTION

Each original painting by Katie Barnes is created on gallery-wrapped canvas, signed by the artist, and professionally wired on the back so it is ready to hang. The edges are painted for a finished look, allowing each piece to be displayed beautifully in your space.

'THE PRINTS' COLLECTION

Each fine art print is thoughtfully produced on high-quality paper to preserve the color, texture, and detail of the original artwork. Available in a variety of sizes, these prints offer an accessible way to bring Katie Barnes’ work into your home.

MEET KATIE

Katie Barnes is a contemporary artist based in the Washington, D.C. area, known for her bold, expressive paintings inspired by nature, color, and the feeling of being fully immersed in a moment.

Her passion for painting began at a young age and later led her to study Industrial Design at James Madison University. In addition to her fine art practice, Katie is deeply connected to the world of interior design, drawing inspiration from textiles, striking patterns, and evolving design trends. These influences bring a layered, dynamic quality to her work.

Most days, Katie can be found creating in her studio alongside her fiancé, Chris, and their English bulldog, Bodie, the beloved unofficial studio assistant.

CLIENT LOVE NOTES

“Katie is a talented artist whose acrylic paintings immediately captivated me when she first began sharing her work online. I jumped at the opportunity to purchase a piece of my own. The small canvas painting of a dirty martini hangs beautifully in my bar area and receives endless compliments from friends and family. This will surely be the first of many pieces of her art that I own, and cannot wait to see what Katie creates next.”
