Kay Duffy

About the Artist
Kay Duffy is a "wet and loose" watercolor artist. Her paintings are bright and impressionistic. She uses bold colors, broad strokes, and strong shapes to depict the natural landscape, flowers and trees, interesting buildings, foreign lands and exotic places. Her abstract collaged (glued) paintings are created by arranging interesting patterns of papers textured in a unique way with watercolor pigments.

Currently Kay coordinates the art program at Hakone Gardens. Painting gives Kay an opportunity to creatively combine several of these active interests: art, outdoor recreation, gardening, travel and open space preservation. She teaches on-going watercolor classes and collage workshops at Hakone Gardens and is a past president of the Hakone Foundation. The City of Saratoga honored this local artist by presenting one of her paintings to their Sister City, Muko-shi, Japan. Kay's watercolors can be found in corporate and private collections in the U. S., Canada, Europe and Japan.

A resident of Saratoga for over thirty-five years, Kay has been active in community affairs with a special interest in parks and the preservation of open space.

Kay is currently featured at the Aegis Gallery in Saratoga.
