Today we’d like to introduce you to Catherine White McIntosh
Hi Catherine, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I guess I’ve always been a creative. Whether it was on the stage, in the dance studio, or in a choir. These days if I’m not in my studio you’ll find me in the kitchen or in the garden trying to create beauty for those around me.
I started painting full time about 8 years ago and have not looked back.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
I have struggled in the past to settle in on one medium or one style. I guess it is my actress background. I like to take on new roles, trying on different “hats”
I work in oils and acrylic on my larger pieces but then switch to watercolor for smaller, more detailed pieces.
I have come to the decision that it’s ok for me to make all different kinds of art!
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
My watercolor pieces are usually small and very detailed with my favorite subject matter being anything chinoiserie.
I paint large atmospheric landscapes and cloudscapes in oil.
I find inspiration from my childhood home of Miami and the Florida Keys and love to paint all kinds of birds and big blue skies or a beautiful sunrise/sunset.
I have collectors from coast to coast!
What do you like and dislike about the city?
I love Fort Worth (and Dallas 😘)
Fort Worth is a fast growing city and has incredible art opportunities, museums, live theatre, and historic sites. And yet, for me it still feels like a small town, And if there is anything I can’t get or do in Fort Worth, Dallas is an easy drive away!
