First Blush

Catherine Doocy is an award winning landscape painter whose ethereal, dreamlike oil paintings of the sky, trees, and branches are about illusion, rather than representation. While sweeping horizons, windswept trees and rich-hued natural landscapes compose the original inspiration for much of Doocy’s work, they provide only a starting point for her reinterpretations of the natural world. A Connecticut artist, she is careful not to give her works site-specific titles; the places could be anywhere and nowhere. Her work has been exhibited extensively throughout the northeast and can be found in private and corporate collections throughout the U.S.
