Kaye L.
Hurtt
back to
gallery artists
Kaye Hurtt
grew up surrounded by silos and
sunflowers in Waterville
Kansas. Perhaps that was where
her inspiration was born but not
fully realized until later in life.
Graduating
from high school meant moving on to
Kansas University where she received
a bachelor's degree in Speech
Pathology. She later married her
husband Mike, subsequently raised
three talented children, pursued
several creative avocations before
recognizing her affinity and passion
for botanical art. At the urging of
a friend, she attended the Botanical
Illustration School located at the
Denver Botanic Gardens and completed
the curriculum in 2000. Since this
time she has been commissioned for
personal collections and
participated in many selected and
solo exhibitions.
Kaye currently lives
and paints in both Denver, Colorado
and Kauai, Hawaii.
