CSImaginings- Original Inkwork by Catherine Smith
About the Artist..
Catherine first began painting and drawing wildlife in high school. Since graduating with her BFA in illustration from RISD in 2004, Catherine has returned to wildlife painting. However, upon this return to a wildlife subject matter she chosen not to focus on the traditional, subject in environment setup, but to capture the essence and character of the subject. With every painting, her goal is to invoke a sense whimsy, fun and charm. There is nothing more rewarding than the smile on a viewer’s face.
Catherine was recently inspired by our work and contacted us about a tour and possible partnership. We were immediately drawn to her artwork, and she came up to meet our beautiful ambassadors and see our work. The result of her visit is the wonderful inkwork listed below (she absolutely captured "Freyja" our peregrine falcon's sweet eyes and facial expression!). Catherine is generously donating 100% of the proceeds from the sale of each image listed. To learn more about Catherine or to visit her website click here.
