Kat Galloway was born June 11, 1964 in Pocatello, Idaho. Kat loved the West and spent years as a young child in Utah where she discovered her passion for art. Her passion took her to Boise where she received her bachelor of fine arts with honors and later went on to receive her master of fine arts degree in drawing from the University of Indiana. In 1998 she moved back to the West to be near her mother and begin her teaching career at Eastern Oregon University. While at EOU Kat taught printmaking and drawing in the art department.

Kat was an inspired teacher who brought out the best in all of her students, many of whom came to her feeling like the task ahead was impossible. Through her encouraging teaching style, her students were able to find within them a way to overcome the impossible to not only create art but to also deeply appreciate art.
