Catherine completed her training at RMIT and Sydney College of the Arts. Softly finished silver and fine layers of vibrant translucent enamels are combined as a signature of her work. Enamel, a form of glass has been used since ancient times. Made from silica and metal oxides, the enamel is crushed in a mortar and pestle to a fine powder, applied wet to the metal surface and kiln fired. Patiently repeated layerings build depth and strength of colour.

It’s vital to me that my work should hold the elements of form and function - to please the hand, the eye and the imagination.
