Kat Manton-Jones

Join us on April 3 as we welcome the inspiring Kat Manton-Jones, a self-taught watercolor artist, sketch hiker, and sketchbook journalist. Kat is a Saguaro Fellow of the Southern Arizona Watercolor Guild and has served as an Artist in Residence at Guadalupe Mountains National Park (2018). She was also honored with the Arts Heritage Fund Award in memory of Janet Tifft (2018-2019).

Her signature series, "Katlas – Where Art and Science Meet," is a captivating blend of sketchbook illustrations, mini-paintings, maps, and musings on life—a testament to her deep connection with both artistic expression and the natural world.

Based in Tucson, Arizona, Kat finds inspiration in the landscapes she explores, spending her time backpacking, hiking, painting, and sketching. She is also an avid adventurer, having completed the Arizona National Scenic Trail as a section hiker on September 9, 2021.

At our April 3 meeting, Kat will share her artistic journey, creative process, and how she intertwines art, exploration, and storytelling. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from a passionate artist who brings the beauty of the wilderness to life through watercolor and sketching!
