turn in 2015 after the Butte Fire in Northern California transformed her life.
Nine days prior to this fire she had just returned from Brazil after
discovering a Knights Templar cave near a small town called Alto Paraiso.
Several weeks later she underwent a liver transplant, making it necessary to
recuperate for
a year and allowing her time to contemplate her future. Up until these events
Kathleen had been a professional artist and educator whose artwork was an
expression of her life experiences. With a background in Anatomy, Sculpture,
multimedia, archeology, mythology, metaphysics and mysticism she uses whatever
media that best exemplifies the concept she wishes to convey. Since 2017, her
art has taken the form of Documentary. Her most recent Documentary, The
Brazilian Templar Mystery was completed in 2019 and sold to Gaia TV in 2020 and
has been out on Gaia TV since January 2021. She plans to create a series of
documentaries backtracking the history of the Templars prior to their arrival
in Brazil and North America. Her passion has always been Researching global
mythology, mystical and spiritual belief systems world wide. Her works are
inspired by ancient indigenous art, archeological discoveries and how these
discoveries are relevant to our modern world. Her fine art installations, Union
of Opposites, Fallen Angels and the Daughters of Man, Unearthing the Goddess,
Union, Transfiguration have exhibited in San Francisco, Sacramento, The Bay
Area, Canada, Germany and New Zealand. Her portraits, Willie, Daniel in the
Lions Den, Mary Magdalene, Leonardo da Vinci etc are in private collections
throughout the world, Leonardo da Vinci is in the da Vinci Museum in Vinci
Italy. Kathleen has participated in solo
and group exhibitions worldwide, with the majority of her work showing in
Northern California, taking numerous 1st, 2nd and Best of Show awards
throughout California.
Her current paintings include: Isis
Through the Ages, Between Two Dimensions, Angelic Encounter, The Priestess, her
series, The Goddesses, Rising From The Ashes, Destiny Embraced and Ayahuasca.
Her current sculptures include, Sumerian Gods, Sumerian Goddesses, Eternal
Love, Denisovan Woman and Woman in Contemplation.
Her mixed media re-creations which
she prepared for “Beyond Anagama” which will show once Covid is over, were
created from the remnants of debris and pieces of sculpture, glass, bits of
melted metal etc, collected from the Ashes of the Butte Fire which leveled her
home and studio in 2015, destroying most of her 40 years of artwork. She wrote
a short story about this experience which was published in “Out Of The Fire”, A
Calaveras Anthology, published by Manzanita Writers Press.
Kathleen’s many years in the Art
world have included, creating art, teaching and designing curriculum for
students in public schools, private institutions, two colleges, doing demos and
exhibitions for numerous county fairs and art organizations, art television
tutorials, (Art and Culture with Kathleen Ball) and creating Open Studio tours
in Amador and Calaveras Counties, participation in Second Saturday art tours in
Del Paso Heights, Sacramento, Ca. and teaching private lessons to students from
4-98.
The continual evolution of
Kathleen’s art has taken many forms ie; fine art, multimedia, installation,
television, writing and documentaries.
She finds her joy in her “boots on
the ground” explorations of ancient sites and expressing her discoveries via
fine art, her documentary, The Brazilian Templars Mystery and most recently in
her book, My Grail Quest, and Discovery of a Mysterious Templar Cave in
Brazil.
