Color is her passion! As an artist specializing in color consulting, Kathy works collaboratively to guide clients through the paint color selection process using her 35 years of experience mixing color in paintings.

Kathy KNOWS color -- and works very efficiently to harmonize a group of colors. Clients love the process - and best of all: they understand it when the right colors are put together! Here is what clients are saying:

"Kathy brings to her work as a colorist vast practical experience, knowledge of color theory and sensitivity to her clients' needs and wishes. Her ability to listen to my aesthetic vision, take into account parameters like budget, how different paints perform and the givens in the space that couldn't be changed resulted in a cost-effective cosmetic remodel that transformed the interior of my house into a home. Suddenly there was vitality, warmth, and cadence from room to room. Colors with Confidence is aptly named!" S.H. home owner

"Kathy's experience and knowledge about colors is extensive, and her application of these skills to the home environment really opened my eyes. The process she walked me through was efficient and enabled me to hone in on exactly the look I wanted to pull off. Kathy gave tips and pointers on what to use in each room based on lighting and the type of light needed to bring out the richness of each color we chose. I really appreciated the process she used to select the colors with me, vs. just telling me what colors to use- it was a process of taking input from me and then narrowing down the choices that worked best in my home. I really enjoyed working with Kathy and would hire her again, and recommend her to others without hesitation." K.C. condo owner

"Kathy is an amazing asset. She is so knowledgable about color it boggles the mind. I have referred her to numerous clients and they've all been thrilled with the results. She helps people choose color that will bring out the best in their home inside and out. She has helped my clients avoid costly mistakes. And, when working with clients that are going to sell their home, she has added substantially to their bottom line. I highly recommend her whatever your painting project interior or exterior." M.D. realtor

"I have had the pleasure of working with Kathy on several occasions and have found her to be not only highly professional, but a joy to collaborate with. Kathy is a consummate artist and entrepreneur. Her aesthetic sense and intuitive ability to interpret her client's needs are perfect compliments to her color consultation services. I highly recommend Kathy to anyone wanting to create an inviting, warm and beautiful environment in their home or office. Not only does she look at each situation with a positive perspective, but her kind and compassionate personality make working with her a wonderful treat!" C.T. designer

"....I have lots of words but none of them describe how beautiful and dear this house turned out. It is completely transformed! What a gift you have and have shared with us. Thank you so much for your part in this process."
