Studio.
A space to share the ideas, experiments, and reflections that shape Cate’s paintings. From time in the Australian landscape to the layered gestures made in the studio, these Studio Notes offer insight into the process behind her abstract landscape art and invite collectors, curators, and galleries to connect with her practice more deeply.
