Cathy Driedzic
Painting the Bight
Art Exhibition and Sale in the Twine Loft
Sep 1 - Oct 9, 2007
Watercolour paintings featuring the
12 communities of Trinity Bight
A recent ‘come from away’, Cathy has been living
in St. John’s Newfoundland since 1999. Completely
taken with the Trinity area, she and her husband
bought an old outport house in Champneys West,
Trinity Bay and are now able to be there in the summer.
Trading her workwoman’s tools for paintbrushes, she
can now fully explore the area with an artist’s eye.
The 12 communities of Trinity Bight are the subject
of this exhibition. New Bonaventure, Old Bonaventure,
Trouty, Dunfield, Goose Cove, Trinity, Trinity East, Port
Rexton, Champneys Arm, Champneys West, Champneys
East and English Harbour. She will be painting outdoors
in the towns and along the coast all season and welcomes
visitors on her painting excursions.
Cathy paints primarily in watercolour, however her
art work includes printmaking, drawing, sculpture and
lamp-making. She exhibits widely in the St. John’s area
and keeps a home studio and gallery open to visitors.
See page 34 of the Craft Council Studio Guide.
Her paintings are in the collections of the Province and
of the City of St. John’s and are shown in several
galleries in the St. John’s area:
