Biography
Kathryn Petroff was influenced by the arts at a young age by her father and oldest sister who both have fine arts degrees. She began drawing and painting as a child and became interested in photography in high school. By her senior year at Bishop Lynch H.S., Kathryn had already been awarded Photographer of the Year as well as competed and won first place for her senior portfolio at the state level TAPPS art competition.
 
She has worked as a logo designer for Three's Co. and a showroom designer at the Dallas World Trade Center, painting logos and creating window displays for the trade shows. Kathryn also worked for Ka Yeung Studio assisting with shoots for companies such as The Container Store, Mary Kay, David Yurman, and SBC. While working there, Kathryn was mentioned in a 2005 issue of "D" Magazine for a backdrop she painted. She has been mentioned in a 2004 article of the Denton Record-Chronicle, "Names in the Arts", a 2007 issue of the UNT Daily, as well as a 2007 article of the McKinney Courrier-Gazette.

In 2007, Kathryn graduated from the University of North Texas with a Bachelors of Fine Arts and moved on to open her own commission-based company out of Dallas, KLP Fine Art.
