Finding Joy

Oh summer, here and gone too quickly as always. Let us reminisce on that summer feeling with a new art showcase! "Finding Joy" by Catherine Bagnell Styles is a collection of 26 paintings she created over the summer months, featuring things that spark joy in her life.

This body of work is Catherine's first solo showcase with us at Argyle Fine Art. During her summer of painting, Catherine took workshops with artist Tim McGuire who pushed her to study still life. This style of painting is featured heavily in this new collection.

Along with afternoon tea and a good book, Catherine finds joy in colours. She paints beautiful coastal images, lily ponds and market scenes. Her style creates the impression of what is there.
