Cathie James-Robinson
Since retiring from a life-long career in technical drawing several years ago, Cathie has been a full-time artist. Throughout her life, she has worked in all types of media, including painting, drawing, sculpting with clay, collage, assemblage and fine art photography. Originally a self-taught artist, in 2008 she attended American River College full time in the Art and Photography departments. There she received degrees in Art and Art New Media as well as the Certificate in Freelance Photography. Currently she focuses on painting and sculpting in clay at her studio which is part of a group of artists called Arboretum Art Works. Working independently in their own studios, they also participate in the monthly ArtAbout art walks and studio tours in Davis.
You can find Cathie most days in her studio, either deeply engrossed in a complex painting, working on a detailed sculpture or simply enjoying the fun of creating her small hand-built ceramics. Her succulent pots and vases continue to be very popular at The Artery. One can often see a new design there on each visit to the gallery. Her original paintings and giclée prints can also be found in her space at The Artery. Cathie loves to paint all things nature and is particularly drawn to the plant life and birds of the wetlands. She also includes bees, flowers and dragonflies in much of her work.
