About Catherine
Catherine’s abstract paintings explore colour, light and our relationship with the natural world, inspired by the landscapes close to her home in Surrey, the South Coast and her travels further afield. She is fascinated by colour, light and contrast and through expressive, energetic mark-making, she captures both the vitality of a place and the feeling of being within it.
Working mainly in acrylics, Catherine also incorporates oil and pigment sticks, chalk pastel, ink and charcoal. She begins with sketches, notes and photographs made in the landscape, then develops the work in her studio, allowing distance from the original inspiration to shape each painting.
