Katrina Daley

Katrina works in Casino as an Optometrist. She helps many of us to see life clearly and to enjoy beautiful works of art like hers.

Katrina loves her work but her real passion is painting and it shows in her richly detailed and vibrant paintings.

We hope she is going to keep exhibiting with us.

You can see Katrina’s stunning paintings at the Country Life Exhibition currently showing until May 30th…

So Katrina……….

Q: What inspired you to begin painting and when was that.?
A: I have always loved creating and getting lost in the process. In the last few years I have focussed more on painting.

Q: What is your favourite painting medium and why?
A: I love acrylic, I love the buttery texture and being able to dab wildly sometimes layering the colour and in contrast to oil I like that it dries quickly, as I tend to layer rather than blend.

Q: Who are my favourite artists ?
A: Arthur Streeton, Renoir and John Singer Sargent

Q :Where do you get inspiration for your art.?
A:When something stops me in my tracks whether from the sheer beauty or the play of the light or the interesting patterns I take a photo and create a painting later.

Q: How has the Cassino Art Gallery benefited you?
A: I am new to the Cassino Art Gallery community and am thrilled to be able to share my paintings and have loved seeing the work of other artists and getting inspiration from their wonderful works

Q: What is your favourite colour
A: Orange and teal . In paint Prussian blue and Burnt Sienna.

Thank you Katrina
