Catherine Beale

Catherine paints from her cottage studio near Bath. She specialises in portraits of animals, people and homes. You can arrange a visit to her studio to see photographs of her previous portraits and discuss commission ideas.

Catherine lived over a decade in South East Asia and her painting has been influenced by the strong Asian sunlight, as well as peoples’ confidence in using bright colours in daily life. She enjoys the richness of oil paints and the way that watercolours can glow when built up in layers.

When not painting to commission, Catherine’s subjects include vibrant floral close-ups, Bath heritage architecture and misty Somerset landscapes. In Singapore and Malaysia she is well known for her series of architectural prints of shophouses and heritage buildings which are on sale in galleries there. In Bath she attends the exacting life classes of the renowned portrait painter Saied Dai at Widcombe Studios.

Catherine shows at group exhibitions with the Old Bakery Artists as well as at various fairs and exhibitions around the South West of England (see website for details). She held three successful solo exhibitions in Singapore and Malaysia. Past clients include British High Commission (Singapore), British Club (Singapore), Asia-Europe Foundation, HSBC, Banc National de Paris, Caltex, Lafarge, Reuters, as well as private individuals worldwide. Catherine is proud to support Asian and UK charities with her sales and by donating her designs. She has helped raise money for schools, orphanages and Riding for the Disabled in Singapore and Malaysia. One highlight was helping an elephant sanctuary in the Malaysian jungle where she designed and painted a giant mural to help raise awareness of the endangered species.
