Catherine Corfield is a contemporary british oil painter specialising in landscape, figurative, and portraiture, living and working in the picturesque Glenkens area of Dumfries and Galloway. Her artistic journey is deeply intertwined with the natural beauty of this region and the human connection to nature.

At the heart of Catherine’s work lies a passion for storytelling. Every piece she creates explores narrative, weaving together moments, emotions, and the interplay between people and their surroundings. Whether capturing the delicate nuances of a portrait or the grandeur of a landscape, her art invites viewers into a world rich with meaning and depth.

Beyond aesthetics, Catherine is an eco-conscious artist, committed to producing beautiful yet environmentally friendly artwork. Sustainability is at the core of her practice, ensuring that her creative process minimizes environmental impact. She actively explores innovative materials and techniques, incorporating natural elements to reinforce the narrative of her work—one that celebrates the planet while encouraging reflection on humanity’s relationship with it.

Through her art, Catherine fosters connection—not only between people and place but also between past and present, reality and imagination. She invites viewers to step into her stories, re-examining their own relationship with nature and the wider world.
