Catherine Ruth Church
Catherine’s studio is based near Twyford, in Hampshire; she takes her inspiration from the flowers, plants and natural forms that she finds in gardens and on walks around this area and beyond.
Her flower paintings are in collections all over the world, they are joyful, life-affirming, richly detailed and endlessly fascinating. There is much to discover in the complex layers of pattern and texture and bold colour.
She works on canvas with household paint, oil and acrylic, pearlized paint and pencil.
