Artist Bio

Cathryn Baerwald lives in her tiny farmhouse in the Snoqualmie Valley near Seattle, Washington only a stone’s throw away from where she was raised. She has remained in rural areas for most of her life due to her deep desire to connect with the natural world. Cathryn finds that this connection to life is most easily expressed through creativity. For the most part, Cathryn develops her imagery from a longing to share how she sees the world outside herself. Her dramatic and expressive style brings forth a story of a day or a moment in life that can be felt.

Her call to be outside in nature led her to found an organic vegetable farm which has been successful for over 20 years. But as Cathryn began to step out of full-time farming, she dove into the art world taking as many art classes as she could and setting aside time to explore nature for inspiration. Mixed media became her passion because of how dynamic and textured it can be and was encouraged to show her work. Within one year of her first class, Cathryn’s work was accepted into a juried exhibition.
