Description
Cathy’s love of life, colour, landscape and narrative is evident in her plein air and studio work. There’s a story behind every artwork too.
The full-day workshop on November 19th , will explore expressive landscape painting, working with participants’ own photos and/or plein air or unresolved pieces to create or resolve an artwork with mixed media. Using the morning’s work as inspiration, artists may then continue working in mixed media or use coloured and printed papers alone to create a more abstracted landscape and “loosen up” their art making.

About the Tutor:
Award-winning mixed media artist and art educator Cathy Shugg is driven to explore the world through her art. She has painted en plein air on six continents to date, undertaking artist residencies, expeditions and other adventures to challenge and inspire her artmaking.
Cathy’s love of life, colour, landscape and narrative is evident in her plein air and studio work. There’s a story behind every artwork too: her plein air pieces capture personally significant experiences and observations of life and place, and these “moments in time” artworks then inspire further explorations in paint, collage and mixed media in her Bowral studio. Cathy’s art teaching encompasses a similarly broad range of 2D media, techniques and themes.
Cathy is a feature artist and teacher for organisations in Australia and overseas. She exhibits in solo and group shows in Australia and Europe and her art is represented in private and corporate collections in Australia, Europe, the UK and North America.
