Visit a working Artist's Studio

Experience the transformation of familiar architecture into art as Cathy Read Opens her Studio to visitors. Using watercolours and acrylic inks, Cathy brings urban landscapes to vibrant life. From the bustle of Victoria Station to the grandeur of Towcester Race Course, She captures the essence of Britain’s cities in her distinctive style. Meet the artist in her working studio, discover her creative process, and browse original paintings, prints, and cards featuring scenes from London, Manchester, Oxford, and local landmarks of Buckingham and Towcester.

I’d love to share my work with you. I am constantly creating new paintings which I share regularly along with news and upcoming events to people on my email list. It’s usually about once a fortnight although sometimes there may be more, if I’ve a lot of events on or something big happens. Sometimes it’s less e.g. during summer holidays.

Open Studio Dates

See the latest paintings hot off the easel.
