BIO, Events & Classes
Sophie Kilpatrick is an award winning full-time professional UK based artist, born in Barton Seagrave, Kettering in 1987.
Sophie is currently represented by Creative Fine Art and her work can be found in various galleries within the UK.
From a young age, she always knew she wanted to paint and create. Sophie exhibited her first piece of art at the early age of 4 years old in the Alfred East Gallery, Kettering.
Sophie then went onto study Art & Design at Latimer Community Arts College, followed by studying Pet Portraits across all mediums at the London Art College. This is where she discovered her love and passion for wildlife photo realism.
Sadly, after Sophie's mum passing in 2017, she knew she had to focus even more on what she loved, what made her happy and to also try and help inspire others to chase their dreams. All of Sophie's energy, passion and focus is now solely on creating and capturing tiny details of the beautiful animal kingdom from all around the world.
Working mainly with acrylics, Sophie wants to remind people how important it is to connect with nature and to not forget how beautiful the world we have around us truly is... and to always chase your dreams!
