Hi and welcome. I am thrilled you are here!
My name is Catherine Freshley and I live with my husband in Portland, Oregon -- our hometown. I love to paint and I love to make colorful art that makes people happy.
I have been making art forever and started selling my art in 2010. I have been a (nearly) full-time painter since 2016. Before that, I worked in digital strategy and brand strategy at an ad agency. I have a degree in economics from Tulane University.
In late 2022, I opened a studio-gallery in gallery in North Portland's bustling Williams District. I would love to have you visit! You can learn more about my gallery here.
I'm passionate about:
Making art less intimidating
I love helping people learn about art and helping them start a collection.
Working with other small businesses
In 2021, Adelsheim hired me to design the label for their Artist Series rosé.
Hosting people in my gallery
We hosted a Mardi Gras-themed mixer for the neighborhood business association.
