Hello,
I’m Kat Healy, an artist based in Scotland. I sing, I write, and I paint.
Please join me as I share poems and personal reflections from my forthcoming poetry pamphlet, ‘Ripening’ (due in 2024).
Along with poetry, ‘Ripening’ will include some new songs and original fine art prints—all created and published from my home studio in East Lothian.
I’m excited to welcome you behind the scenes and share my creative practice and the process of publishing my own work.
There will be exclusive subscriber-only content for you to enjoy — only on Substack.

In August 2023, I was awarded the Youth Arts Open Funding by YouthLink Scotland, supported by Creative Scotland.
I will be working with children and young people in the North Berwick Coastal Ward area through autumn, winter, spring and early summer (‘24). I’m looking forward to sharing reflections and updates via my Substack.
