Cat is a visual artist based in Mid-Wales whose work focuses on portraiture and the figure. Primarily painting in oils, and drawing in charcoal and pastels, her work is imaginative and often has one foot in history or reality, whilst the other dabbles in myth or daydreams.

Cat won joint-third prize in the 2024 Gwenllian Ashley Art Prize for her painting Evolution Revolution, and was awarded Student of the Year at Coleg Ceredigion, where she completed her Foundation Diploma with distinction. She went on to study classical oil portraiture under acclaimed artist Louis Smith, gaining a Gold Award in July 2025.

Cat sells her original paintings, prints of her work and is open to commissions.
