Upstate NY-based artist Catherine LaPointe-Vollmer creates impressionistic landscape paintings in soft pastel as well as retro-inspired graphic posters. Her work centers on the effects of light and shadow on the landscape, with a particular focus on the distinct character and personality of trees. Catherine hails from the "North Country", a rural area of New York State between the Adirondack Mountains and Canada infused with rivers, trees, and mountains. She developed a love of hiking and adventuring early on, and naturally sought to capture the views she found and put them to paper. After completing internships with the Florence International Theater Company in Italy and Illustration House in New York City, Catherine earned her BFA in Illustration at Syracuse University. She moved back north to establish her freelance practice. A frequent traveler, her love of the natural world grew with each place she visited. This led her to a practice of plein air painting on location, and a focus on landscape art. She recently visited her 40th US national park, creating artwork inspired by her trips.
