Meet Katy, your teacher!

Katy Biele

Artist

I enjoy spreading the joy of making textile art and painting. My work has been exhibited internationally and is known for its vibrant use of color and rich textures. I work across embroidery, fiber art installations, and painting on paper and canvas, often mixing watercolors, acrylics, and inks. I’ve been teaching for over 10 years, leading in-person workshops around the world as well as online. Teaching is one of my greatest passions, and I especially love fostering creative communities where students can explore freely, play with color, and build confidence in their own creative process.

FAQ

  • What is the refund policy?

    All sessions are recorded and accessible to watch later for 2 months so you can watch at your own pace. Because of this, I’m unable to offer refunds.

  • I am a complete beginner can I still participate?

    Yes! While a basic knowledge of stitching is helpful, this is an explorative course focused on creativity.
