Les Rougets, River Mouth, acrylic on canvas, 132 x 132 cmsCatherine ForshallCatherine Forshall grew up on the West Coast of Scotland where childhood fishing trips for Mackerel with her father have influenced her life-long love of the sea. She is a keen champion of marine conservation. Unusually her paintings combine accurate observation and knowledge of marine species with an expressive fluidity and treatment of the paint surface. The strength of these works lies in the subtle observation of marine life which underlies her skill at pattern making and layering of the paint surface. She now divides her time between the South of France and Devon.Click here to view more work by Catherine Forshall
