Kathryn Keller was born in 1952 in El Dorado Arkansas to Polly Murphy and Christoph Keller. She grew up one of six children, the daughter of an Episcopal priest in Harrison Arkansas, Jackson, Mississippi and Little Rock, Arkansas.

She has had subsequent studies at The Arkansas Arts Center in Little Rock AK, The Arts Student League of New York in New York, NY and The New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts in New Orleans, LA.
Her early work can be classified as narrative in nature focusing on themes of myth, family-life, birth and death. In her late forties she began working exclusively from life, continuing to draw inspiration from her surroundings, family, and location. Over the past twenty years she has focused on landscapes, cityscapes, interiors, and portraits, continuing to develop her narrative, figurative, and landscape work. She paints in Oil and Watercolors.
She has shown throughout the south, in New Orleans, Atlanta, Lafayette, Louisiana, El Dorado, Arkansas, Savannah, Georgia and Bay St Louis, Mississippi. Her shows have consisted of landscapes, cityscapes, portraits and interiors.
