Catherine Sweet
The Artist in Her Own Words:
A self-taught artist living and working in London, I primarily use acrylic, oils and found materials on canvas. I favour bright colours and plenty of texture, finding most of my inspiration in the natural world and in my favourite music. My latest series of abstracts explore our cultural relationships with colour and emotion.
My practice has adapted in recent years due to deteriorating motor function - I have Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, so difficulty gripping paint brushes has led to more experimentation with palette knives, stencils and spray paints, plus air-drying clay, collage and stitching.
I'm a member of the Advisory Group for ArtCan, an organisation devoted to creating opportunities for artists without compromise to their artistic exploration or development. I was formerly Chair of the Visual Arts Committee for Arts Richmond, where it was my pleasure to represent visual arts across the Richmond upon Thames.
