Our 2026 SJF Signature Artist is the wonderful Katerina Hrdlicka Werth...
Katerina Hrdlicka Werth is a Czechoslovakian-born artist who emigrated to Canada with her family, where she earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of Western Ontario in London. She has called Morristown Vermont home for the past 25 years and currently serves as the general manager of the Vermont Community Newspaper Group in Stowe, as well as the publisher and art director of Stowe Guide & Magazine.
Working primarily in oil, as well as charcoal and pastels, Kat creates both landscapes and “mindscapes” that reflect her love of place and imagination. She also designs jewelry and has recently begun exploring stained glass, all from the garage studio her husband built for her.
Her work is on display at Rock Art Brewery & Gallery and Sushi Yoshi, and you can find her at facebook.com/MREEOOW. She is honored that a painting commissioned for this year’s Stowe Jazz Festival has been selected as the festival’s featured image.
