Meet the founder
Hi, I’m Katie Tofigh
I’m an artist, architect and interior designer, and the founder of Happy Palette Studio. I began painting during my architecture studies and continued my creative journey through Iran, South Africa and Canada.
With more than eight years of professional watercolour experience and over five years working in acrylic, I created Happy Palette Studio to give children, adults, seniors and families a warm place to learn, connect and express themselves.
My teaching is not about simply copying a picture. I help each student develop an idea, sketch it, choose their own colours and create something they feel proud of.
— Katie
“More than an art studio—a place where hearts meet.”
