About the Artist

Kate Ingmundson

I came to Boulder, Colorado in 1984 to attend graduate school in Communication Disorders and Speech Science at the University of Colorado; but in truth, I chose to attend the University when I saw the cover of the catalog. It featured a gorgeous photograph of the iconic Flatirons rock formations towering above the campus.

Now I can see the Flatirons out of the window of my 10th floor apartment. Without fail, my daily routine begins with drinking my morning coffee while sitting in front of that window, watching the weather and light changing moment to moment.

Inspired by that view, I bought a used Nikon D3300 and started studying photography in earnest. Snow on Bear Peak and Fire Rainbow were shot from my window, and Flatirons on a Winter Afternoon was shot from the 11th floor balcony of my apartment building. Many of the landscapes you see here are within an hour’s drive of my home.

I enjoy crawling around in the communal gardens where I live, wearing dirty green kneepads and elbow protectors, taking close-ups of plants and flowers, rain droplets and spider webs, and things we often pass by unless we slow down and look closely.

My art is influenced by years of meditation and mindfulness practice. Through photography, I hope to encourage others to slow down and pay attention to small details, to enjoy simplicity, and to find beauty everywhere.

I’ll be continually updating this website with new photos, so please come back to see what’s new.

Thanks for coming by!
