This painting tells a story about adventure, travels and escaping to a fun and colorful topsy turvey world.

It explores how everything is connected.

A Topsy Turvey ‘Dreamscape’ world where happy homes and harmony is abundant. “Flight of Fancy” is an escape from our crazy Covid-19 days. This painting is one from a series of ‘Dreamscapes’ where you will find personalities in the buildings, homes and park-lands that are the urban landscapes we once frequented. Now more than ever our homes are our fortress and heartlands, a place where the windows are the eyes to our souls. Our communities are changed in a way never experienced before and this is a source of curiosity, wonder and inspiration. This project explores our contemporary urban landscapes drawn from memories, feelings and subconscious recall. Look carefully to see the little bird, figures among the buildings, a lake with bathing boxes and places to camp and escape city life. A reflection that is so meaningful today. Of course the viewer is invited to interpret the painting in their own way.

Cat loves to use colour, intuitive mark making, symbols, and typography to create her unique paintings of imagined and remembered urban landscapes. The works are built with multiple layers as she searches for the painting within. By changing the scale, plane and direction, the painting evolves and comes forward. Look closer for small vignettes and make up your own stories of escape and adventure.

Original and unique this colourful contemporary painting is beautifully finished, it is varnished and the painting is ready to be hung as is. Add vitality and energy to any room with this painting which will add intrigue and joy to any home.
