Local Art in the Cafe
ARTIST OF THE MONTH: CATHERINE BINNIE
Catherine Binnie derives inspiration for her work from the natural world and from daily life- the human form, relationships, the gentle landscape of Oxfordshire, trees, flowers, birds, the sea, changing seasons and light. She has a love of natural materials: stone, pigment, hand-made paper, charcoal and ink.
Having gained a degree in Fine Art Sculpture from Wimbledon School of Art, Catherine spent several years living and working from her studio in Battersea, London before returning to Oxfordshire where she grew up. She now lives and works in the Cotswolds and has a studio next to the railway station in Charlbury which she opens twice a year and by appointment. She also runs weekly stone carving courses from her studio.
Upcoming open weekends:
November 17th-18th and 24th-25th. 11am-4pm
Details on her website.
Her work has been widely exhibited and can be found in private collections and public spaces.
