Cath Michael is an emerging artist based in Brisbane with a passion for nostalgia, particularly Mid Century Modern, Vintage and Art Deco styles.
Growing up with a mother who was a high school art teacher, Cath was exposed to various art practices, which included interior and fashion design as well as painting, with a special focus on Dutch artists due to her heritage.
In 2023, after a chronic medical condition led her to leave a 20+ year finance career, she pursued painting seriously.
Cath’s work features florals, still life, vintage items and mid century furniture. Drawing inspiration from sentimental objects and cherished memories, her work often reflects a longing for times gone by when life was much simpler.
Cath’s paintings have been exhibited in galleries both interstate and locally in Queensland. She is currently represented by Artbid and the Gold Coast Gallery of Art.
