About the Artists:

Cathy is an award-winning pastel artist who combines her love for the outdoors with her passion for painting. A native of New Paltz NY, she draws inspiration from the natural beauty that surrounds her. Through her artwork, she shares her deep appreciation for the environment, capturing the landscape where light, atmosphere, and time come together. She strives to encourages the viewer to form an emotional connection to the world around them.

Maureen began weaving Eastern White Pine needles when a limb fell from a tree in her yard in April, 2023. This quickly became a favorite pastime. It combines her love for the outdoors and her experiences with sewing and floral design. Maureen has since explored weaving with other foraged fibers. It has taught her to take a closer notice of what grows around her.
