The girl waits
© Catherine Redmayne
A tiny collage picture (ATC size) which includes a reproduction of a detail from a larger painting. It is so strange how the tilt of the head, the surrounding colour etc. changes everything – she looked quite happy before!
The original portrait sold long ago but this new version is available as a print in various formats here.
Sparrows

A fun experiment in trying to get a sumi-e look on the iPad using the Brushes App. The sparrow ‘paintings’ were then printed on silk and added to a background of prepared papers in a collage.
Size 7×5 inches (18×13 cm)
Jurassic Park
© Catherine Redmayne
A collaged pattern of pieces cut from prepared papers and stuck on a monotype background. The theme was suggested by a couple of the shapes but the pattern is abstract really and is one of an experimental set using simplified 3-tone versions of photographs as a starting point. 7×5 inches (18×13 cm).
I had this framed and Adam the framer said it was foxes so I renamed it Vulpes vulpes! But it’s still listed under the old title here.
Jamaican holiday

Most of my current collages are made with decorated papers I prepare myself but this one I ‘made earlier’ has always been one of my favourites. The shape of the house is more-or-less as it should be but it was actually black and white. The collaged additions are not Caribbean!
Reproduction and iPhone case available here.
Dreary, bleary Alice

A small picture which evolved through collage and many layers of paint. The title comes I think from Mervyn Peake’s Letters from a Lost Uncle and always makes me smile. Image 6.75 inches square (17 cm square) on heavyweight watercolour paper.
Dancing birds

Hope the shepherds enjoy it! An abstract of red and blue measuring 7×7 inches (17.5×17.5 cm) collaged onto heavyweight watercolour paper.
Inward looking, outward looking

Pink elephant

Well, no – it’s not really an elephant, I agree! But at a quick glance it might be! A mixed media piece including some collaged prepared papers on heavyweight watercolour paper. Size 6.5 inches square (16.5 cm square).
The man at the gate
© Catherine Redmayne
This is a tiny image – only 4.5 inches square – but I find it pleasing because you have to seek out the man of the title. A representation of a happy day out exploring the surroundings of an old English church.
Harbour
© Catherine Redmayne
A tiny picture only 4×4 inches but I found it pleasing when the abstract pieces seemed to make a nice whole. Prepared papers collaged onto heavyweight watercolour paper.
Billboard
© Catherine Redmayne
An abstract of prepared papers, collaged to heavyweight watercolour paper. The similarity to a ‘distressed’ advertising site has been deliberately developed.
Image size 8×8 inches (20×20 cm approx) ready to frame under glass.
Yellow piano man

One of my drawings made at a gig and used here as a collage item in a mixed media piece with prepared papers. Mounted on heavyweight watercolour paper ready to frame under glass. Image size is 8×8 inches approx.
View from my window
© Catherine Redmayne
An abstract pattern of collaged prepared papers. There is no view, there is no window but it looks like there might be!
Image size 7.5×7.25 inches (19×18.5 cm) on heavyweight watercolour paper, ready to frame under glass.
Dreamer
Dreamer

A bold ‘blind contour’ drawing over an abstract collage background. Her thoughts may be elsewhere but it’s a good day – she’s wearing her red dress.
Image size 7.25×8.25 inches (18.5×21 cm approx) on heavyweight watercolour paper ready to frame under glass.
Marked
© Catherine Redmayne
A ‘blind contour’ drawing over a collage background. The remainder of the collage was painted out with black to set off the face. The image measures 8×9.5 inches approx. and is on heavyweight watercolour paper ready for framing under glass.
The three musketeers
© Catherine Redmayne
Essentially an abstract piece but I like the vague resemblance to three heads in a row! 7×5 inches. Mixed media including collage on heavyweight watercolour paper.
Reproductions of this painting in different formats or as a greetings card are available here.
A man of few words
© Catherine Redmayne
An image featuring an ambiguous portrait in complementary purple and yellow. Size 6.5 inches square (16.5 cm square). Mixed media including collage, transferred text and paint on heavy watercolour paper. Ready to frame.
Bad map reader

Or ‘The back seat driver gets her comeuppance’! A fun piece that emerged from nowhere and I liked it. Image size 7×7 inches. Collage, paint and gold leaf on heavy-weight watercolour paper.
