ARTIST BIO

Cathy’s work is all hand drawn in archival ink.  The delicacy is reminiscent of an embroiderer’s needlework and in particular, lace.  The complexity of design and exquisite execution are evidence of Cathy’s devotion to her work.  “…As time went on my art became more and more complex and structured, with any one piece taking up to 250 hours.”

Her intricate and finely detailed works demonstrate a radial balance, drawing our gaze from the centre point.  The circle, considered the perfect shape in Ancient Greek culture, has been associated with both divine and natural symmetry.  It represents balance and can often symbolise harmony and unity.  Cathy’s works evoke harmonious balance and the peace felt creating the works is transferred to the viewer.  They invite quiet contemplation and introspection. Her work is available in Fine Art Reproduction Limited Edition Prints and originals may still be available on request. Her work is held in many private collections in Australia, America, United Kingdom, The Netherlands, New Zealand and Singapore.

Cathy has been working full time as an artist for the past 4 years and teaches in schools across SA years 2 – 12. She has worked with Cancer Care, Cando and special needs students.  She has held workshops at Adelaide University, corporations and has been invited to many retreats to teach.
