I'm an artist, writer, and instructor living in Los Angeles with my husband Bradley Paul and four-legged kid Violet.

My geographical affiliations include Wisconsin (born), Tennessee (raised), Iowa (MFA from University of Iowa Writers' Workshop in 1998, Graduate Certificate from the UI Center for the Book in 1999), Baltimore (became a grown-up), Texas (MFA in Studio Art in 2008 from the University of Texas at Austin), and California (the sunny present).

I teach Text & Image, Visual Culture, Capstone, and PST: Art & the City of Angels at Otis College of Art and Design. In the past, I have taught for the Maryland Institute, College of Art (MICA), Johns Hopkins University, Towson University, the JHU Center for Talented Youth (CTY), and the Universities of Iowa and Texas (as a grad student).

My blogs are Middle Stanza (for art and poetry), Another Dress, Another Mind (about plants, animals, etc.,) and UpUm (a photo project).

You can contact me at "kpaul" at "otis" dot "edu."

I made this site myself.
