Visual Artist
Welcome to the gallery of artworks created by Vancouver artist Catherine S. Adamson. Catherine's paintings are made with acrylic and latex paint on stretched canvases and finished with a UV-protectant varnish. Using her "free-flow" painting method of allowing paint to flow off a wooden stick and down onto a prone canvas, she layers the colours and lines to create a unique movement and depth on each canvas. Paintings can be purchased directly from the venues, or by contacting the artist via email. Enjoy!

My Inspiration
I have always sketched and painted throughout my life, but only recently these past twelve years have I experimented with what I call "Free-Flow" painting. By giving up having complete control, as we do with a paintbrush, I allow the paint to flow freely from the stick held over a prone canvas and watch the magic happen. I am influenced by the chaos and beauty of nature. Certainly Jackson Pollock's style of dripping and pouring paint from above also influenced my method. I have moved beyond abstract and take time for images to emerge from the chaos I create. There is great joy in letting go of control and celebrating the results.
