Piece description from the artist
I'm always amazed at the simple, yet beautiful, scenes that are overlooked daily. This little house was found behind Main Street in Craig, CO. I was intrigued by the simplicity and the cold feeling emitted by the snow and icicles. While painting I decided to throw a splash of warmth to balance it out. What interests me is the amount of power a small patch of warm can have in the midst of so much cold. This can be said in all forms or instances of life.
Brandy Cattoor finds motivation in portraying simple everyday scenes. Her work has been inspired by the Impressionist painters, and various artists such as Wayne Thiebaud, Charles Demuth, and Edward Hopper. Brandy graduated with a Bachelors degree of Fine Art in oil painting from Brigham Young University Idaho in 2011. She currently studies at the Art Students League of Denver. Brandy has completed commission work for portrait drawings and oil paintings. The artist is primarily interested in landscapes and architectural painting. She is also strongly attracted to intimate portraits and still life scenes. In addition to painting Brandy also enjoys making handmade paper products where her paper work has been shown at the Denver International Airport, and various other local shows. While the artist enjoys creating in various forms, painting remains a strong part of her. She says “When I am creating I feel a fullness of joy. It’s as if painting is part of my soul.” Brandy would like to have her work in various homes across the world, and hopes that her artwork will provide peace to others.
