Her work has been published in magazines and newspapers, and shown in galleries in Seattle, Portland, and Southern Oregon.

She hosts gallery shows, music and art events, and teaches a wide variety of art workshops to both beginning and professional artists. Cathy is a nationally recognized teacher with a passion for helping people RE-discover their inner artist. Cathy teaches workshops in painting, mixed media, assemblage, fiber-arts, sculpture, jewelry, and sumi-e (Asian Ink Painting). Her style includes everything from contemporary to world art.
