Lisa Catherwood
 
 
About the Artist

The stuff of life – water, light and human relationships inspire my work. Life experience has naturally feeds into the work. It is vibrant and colourful and energetic


Working in various media, always looking “to capture spirit and light”, Lisa has made exhibited and sold work in pen and ink, watercolours, painted glass and mirrors, pastels, acrylics and oils. Lisa has also worked with photography and digital art media and animation. In recent years she has returned to work in oils, joined with enamel on copper and the use of gold and other metal foils and in mixed media pieces. Often the ground for the Surf paintings are gold leaf to create unexpected sparkle.

Wipeout

2007
Oil on Canvas
90x90cm

Wipeout
The view when it all goes wrong, as the wave thunders over your head, and you struggle back to sunlight and air and life and tha next wave.

Riding Giants

2007
Oil on Canvas
90x90cm

Riding Giants
The immense beauty and power of really huge waves is neither tamed nor diminished by the people who ride them. A day spent on the coast in a storm should not only chill the bone but warm the heart at the thought of the wonderfully senseless achievement of the men who take on the elements for joy.

Surf

2006
90x90cm

Surf
Early autumn afternoon at Rossnowlagh beach, the blue sky and fine sunshine and regular rollers that have come all the way from Boston, to crash on the sand in even ranks and hypnotise the gulls amid the dunes with rolling sussuration. In time all perception of depth dissappears and all becomes a pattern of harmonic rhythm.

And She Was

2005
Oil on Gold Leaf on Canvas
90x90

Inspired by a spiritual journey in Egypt the poignant emotion of joy and pain in the creativity of the feminine.

Cosmic Pear

2001
oil and mixed media
60x40cm

One afternoon the sunlight on the garden caught a blushing D'Anjou against the blue sky and it became for an instant a Mythical fruit sailing through space. I was paintimg a series of suns at the time, and somehow the next canvas went pear shaped, in a most pleasing fashion.

Pool Boy

2008
Oil on Canvas
80x80

Pool Boy
A painting of a beautiful naked young man diving into a clear blue pool. Some things you just never tire of.

Fig tree at midday

2009
Oil on Canvas
90x90

Fig tree at midday
The view of the sun through my favourite fig tree in the garden at Mas de Cadignac in the South of France.

Autum Decay

2006
Pen and Ink
300x600

Autum Decay
Abstract pen and ink inspired by the decomposition in Autumn.
