A mysterious Halloween Moon (2020) or “Dark Side of the Moon” during an eclipse before it was evoked by Pink Floyd. The origin of Halloween itself can be traced back to Samhain which was an ancient Celtic festival celebrated to mark the end of harvesttime. It was also the end of their year and the beginning of the new year, so it was “in between” the two years. It’s said that the spirits of the dead wander around during this time in the moonlight. Next Halloween moon: give it about 19 - 20 years.

Nothing is less real than realism. Details are confusing. It is only by selection, by elimination, by emphasis, that we get at the real meaning of things.” ― Georgia O'Keeffe

Catherine revels in finding unique, tantalizing ways to record the natural world.

Catherine's paintings are defined by the moment and place they are created. Whether reflecting a mood, a light source, or something so exquisite it had to be painted; her soul goes into each stroke, color choice, composition and execution. The dynamic is a fluidity of mixed and layered pigments allowed to flow unfettered. The paint may be directed with brushes, wedges or tools, with an underlying preconceived final vision guiding decision-making.

Painting provides a sense of peace and productivity that is unmatched. Catherine feels a profound reverence for nature and has a heightened sense of urgency driving her to engage people with nature through her work. She has immersed herself in gorgeous surroundings, finding a deep connection to the mountains, the waterfalls and skies. Catherine hikes to where she connects with the landscape, then paints plein air. Observations are taken back to the studio triggering a profound creative response. Catherine strives to elicit a positive, meditative response in the viewer, leaving them with positive feelings about the earth and its extraordinary beauty.
