Cathy studied fashion, textile design and photography and went on to become a commercial photographer. In recent years she has worked as a mural and trompe l’oeil artist, creating large-scale artworks on the walls and ceilings of many different spaces.
Cathy is the creator of the highly acclaimed Chicky Chicky Chook Chook; Monkey Monkey Monkey and Spooky Spooky Spooky. She writes, illustrates, designs and creates in a studio at the bottom of her garden, inspired by the plants and wildlife that surround her.
