Catherine
began painting and selling her works at age fourteen. After graduating from Jacksonville
University with a B.F.A., she received the 1978 Graphic Art Award and the
Certificate of Honor in Printmaking.
The Florida Times applauded her work on several occasions. Another
one of her early accomplishments includes being commissioned to paint a mural
for the United Brotherhood of Painters Union in their Manhattan headquarters
on Fifth Avenue. She expanded her
horizons as an assistant to master sculptor, Judith Brown, who she assisted
with the completion of a bronze sculptures displayed in Tiffany’s windows,
Christmas 1980. In 1981, Catherine’s
paintings where exhibited in the Greenspring Art Gallery in SoHo, New York
City. After
receiving her Master’s Degree from Queens College, she was hired to teach in
their School of Education/Continuing Children’s Art Program. She is a licensed New York State teacher. Catherine
has studied and exhibited at The Victor D’Amico Institute of Art, The Art
Barge, located in Amagansett, New York. Catherine
is an active member of the Montauk Artist’s Association, Long Island New
York. Her works have been featured in
small group shows since 2003. Her work
will be exhibited this July – August.
She has exhibited in many all member shows and The Juried Art shows on
the Montauk Green. While
painting en plein aire last summer, on Little Cranberry Island, a small
island off coast of Bar Harbor, Maine, Catherine was invited to exhibit her
oil paintings. She was a visitor that
was able to convey the special bond the community feels for their Maine
Island. The Islesford Artists Gallery has invited her back to exhibit. Catherine
is a member of MAG; Mamaroneck Artist’s Guild . Her paintings and drawings have been in
several of their art shows. Her large works are presently on exhibit in the
Mamaroneck Town Center. Catherine
continues to follow her love of printmaking as a member of The Center for
contemporary Printmaking. Ten of her
small works are presently on display in London, England. Publications
which featured her art work have been Dan’s Papers and The
MontaukPioneer. “Perfect Day” an
oil painting was featured as the cover of Dan’s Paper. Catherine
Caulfield Russell continues to be inspired by nature and paints primarily en
plein aire. Her paintings are completed ala prim. She is not only inspired by nature but loves
to live outdoors while creating and capturing the ever changing face of
nature |
