Cathy
it is not a question of painting life, but of giving life to one's painting
Born in 1963, Cathy lives and works in France where she devotes herself passionately to drawing and painting. Using mainly pastel on paper and graphite on paper, she excels in the art of figurative portraiture. Her most famous series, “Color Mama,” is a vibrant and moving tribute to older women. In this series, she captures the essence and wisdom of her models using soft pastels on half-tone Canson paper.
From a young age, Cathy has been attracted to the human face, finding in features and expressions an infinite source of inspiration and beauty. His portraits are distinguished by their emotional depth and richness of detail, each stroke of pastel or pencil bringing a new dimension to the soul of his subjects.
The artist finds great satisfaction in the creation of her works, seeking to reveal the dignity and history of each face she draws.
Cathy is self-taught, and her artistic journey is marked by a constant exploration of techniques and styles. She found in pastel and graphite the perfect mediums to express her artistic vision. His work has been presented in numerous exhibitions in France, where he received an enthusiastic reception from the public and critics.
