Catherine Jane’s landscape paintings are crafted to evoke a profound sense of atmosphere and mood. She wants you to not just see, but to truly experience the view, finding a sense of calmness within her artworks. Each brushstroke aims to transport you, allowing you to immerse yourself in the world she creates, recognising a piece of yourself within these natural settings.

Inspired by Southland's soul

Catherine Jane finds her deepest inspiration in the iconic Mataura River and the majestic Hokonui Hills of Southland, New Zealand. Her art often captures the delicate dance of vegetation and reflections along river banks, frequently bathed in the warm glow of a sunset. The unique palette of these regions deeply influences her work, bringing an authentic Southland essence to each piece.

The artistry of watercolour

Catherine Jane’s ideal audience appreciates a somewhat abstract style, one that celebrates the unforced nature of watercolour. She embraces a looser technique, often utilising wet-on-wet painting with a generous amount of water and a larger brush. This approach allows the pigment to flow freely, creating an impressionistic effect where subjects are recognisable yet open to individual interpretation. It's for those who love art where water guides the pigment, leading to unique and captivating results.
