Dartmoor People

Kate Gold

Devon

Kate Gold is a Dartmoor based, mixed media artist and poet. From an early age she has loved to create and has always been inspired by the natural world and landscapes, both in her art and writing.

As a mature student Kate gained a B.A Hons Creative Arts and subsequently, an M.A in Creative Writing at Bath Spa University. She went on to become a tutor for art and creative writing in H.M.P. Bristol and also to work with a Barnardo's Family Centre in Radstock, Somerset running art groups for young children from families in crisis.

After moving to Dartmoor in December 2018, Kate has felt the wide skies and stretching moorland influence her art and poetry. Using her own printed and painted papers to create texture and atmosphere, her mixed media collages reflect the love and connection she feels to the wild land.

Since starting the Professional Landscape Programme at Newlyn School of Art in November 2025, Kate has been exploring the winter landscapes of Dartmoor and the shapes of stones using simple printing methods on a variety of papers.

Kind words

I met Kate several years ago now when I took her on a photography walk around Scorhill, since then I'd like to think we've become rather good friends and we've collaborated on several different projects. Kate is a wonderful subject to photograph, her quiet, gentle personality belies the passion of her poetry and beautiful artworks. Kate also takes part in the Devon Open Studios - where artists open their homes to visitors. Make sure you visit if you have a chance 😍
