Catherine returned to painting 15 years ago. She departed from her job for healing
purposes after some significant life changes. During that time she focused on raising her
daughter and finding new work while re-committing to her art to see where it might take
her. Prior to leaving the work place Catherine had started taking art classes locally,
focusing on drawing to re-connect with the basics. About a year later, she was
encouraged to move into painting by one of her mentors. Although she was hesitant, it
wasn’t long before it became clear this was right where she needed to be.

Quickly, memories returned surrounding the joy in painting. As an art major in college,
this is where hours would pass like seconds. This was happening again, even with the
frustrations of starting over. With diligence and commitment she practiced,
supplementing classes with drawing and painting in her spare time and by connecting
with local artists; shifting between hours in the field plein-air painting and developing a
studio practice.
Ms. Martzloff began showing her drawings and some paintings in 2011 receiving
acceptance into a variety of local juried shows which provided the affirmation to keep
going. Finding a flow extending from a consistent practice and willingness to push past
comfort zones a shift occurred in her approach within the last few years. Feeling a close
connection to color as a source since childhood, her paintings began to emerge with a
boldness and courage not previously there.
Ms. Martzloff was born in Vancouver, BC and has lived in the US most of her life. She
currently resides in New Jersey where she has a small business boarding dogs and
continues to paint daily and sell her artwork around the globe. She is continually inspired
by many masters and loves the Fauvist’s. Her desire is to continue to develop paintings
that keep the viewer engaged in something beyond the surface. ...
