About Catherine Kleeli

It was for the sheer joy of creative endeavour that I embarked on a BA (Hons) Fine Art degree as a mature student.
Little did I know that this would keep me professionally occupied for 16 years, working primarily as a painter and printmaker until the inception of my eponymous greetings card publishing business. My machine-stitched collages became the basis of a blank art card range that sold nationwide until my retirement from the business in 2023.
I love to spend time in my sunny garden studio and am currently enjoying making 'art for arts sake'. However, as people seem to like what I do, I’ve felt encouraged to share my creations with you via this website page.
My painted, printed or collaged artworks use figurative elements, be they human or animal, to help me express topical subjects of interest to me.
My artworks are for sale, although I always find letting them go is like a child leaving home. It has to be done
