"Lusitano Gallop" by Catherine Twomey Now On Offer!
This work is a combination of love for the horse and visualizing the energy within. Such a powerful, glorious, free creature! A full gallop is a sight to behold - and the exciting thing about this one is the sense of relaxation, of moving into the gait with confidence and strength. This Lusitano stallion signifies freedom - from the self-carriage in the neck and head to the graceful curvatures of the hind end. This original oil is on archival Arches oil paper and is unframed. To purchase: https://www.catherinetwomey.com/available/lusitano-gallop-10

“Sequenced”, 24” X 36” pigments, iridescents, metallics on aluminum panel, framed.
"Sequenced" Original Painting by Catherine Twomey On Offer
The luminous sky and mountains at over 6,000 feet can overwhelm. Couple that with the late spring blooms of the rhododendrons, and there is a sense of floating high above the clouds as the sun descends. I'm inspired by the mountains and sky, of course - but the flow of the pigments themselves is so freeing; so abstract. It's like it helps makes sense of all of the complex layers and diffuse light spreading through the clouds. Each layer is constructed
separately using pigments, tools, an airbrush and gravity. Although the end result appears realistic, on closer inspection it's made up of pours, ridges and glowing pigment. This 24" X 36" original painting will infuse your room settings with good taste and luminescence. It is framed in a lovely copper and black floating frame.

"Something's Coming" On Offer, The Village Gallery, Oriental, NC
“Something’s Coming” 30” X 30” framed, on archival artefax panel, https://www.catherinetwomey.com/available
There’s that moment when you’ve hiked to the top of a mountain and you’re finally getting that 360° view. You’re wafting above a slope of rhododendrons in bloom - blindingly pink; luscious - and there at the horizon is a rapidly moving storm (towards you, of course) and suddenly you realize it’s time to descend. Will you?
"Revolution" On Offer, The Village Gallery, Oriental, NC
“Revolution”, 30”X30” on polycotton over aluminum panel, framed. Come by The Village Gallery in Oriental or take a look here: https://www.catherinetwomey.com/available/revolution
The constantly in flux earth, shown with varied and dynamic weather patterns over the global surface. I grew up exploring real globes - the kind you can spin and touch. The earth's revolutions as well as the revolutions of storm systems all at the same moment kept me enthralled. So much of the earth being made up of that stunning teal water and how it influences our climate, all while hurdling through space - complexity beyond my ability to grasp it all.
