Catherine Bagnell Styles

Biography

I am a Halifax-based artist who loves colour, texture, character and light in places, people and paintings. My paintings are usually colourful and optimistic. I paint in a light-filled studio in beautiful Ketch Harbour, as well as en plein air, especially when travelling. Landscapes, streetscapes and occasional still life seems to attract me the most but… you never know what’s next.

My creative career has been in marketing, communications and advertising and has focused on story-telling, design and making a connection with people. Artistic endeavours have always played an important part in my life. I've had the very good fortune to study at NSCAD as well as with these talented artists: David Lacey, Sandi Komst, Zehava Power, Mike Svob and Bob Burridge. My paintings have found homes in private collections throughout Canada and the US. My work has been featured in Argyle Fine Art's Pre-Shrunk and Under the Influence Shows.
