Catherine W Smith - Workshops

I regret to announce that due to my health, I have recently retired from teaching. However, I still hope to accept occasional invitations to demonstrate painting or do a group critique. I also plan to continue this website where I hope you will enjoy viewing my latest paintings.

My most sincere thanks to each of you who have studied with me at any point through the years. Teaching has been one of my greatest privileges in life. So has knowing you. I certainly hope that we can stay in touch. Until then, keep painting and rehearsing. Stay encouraged… and may inspiration always lead your way.
