I met Catherine on the Avila Beach Promenade selling her artwork. We became friends and enjoyed our outings. She was kind and talented. I am reminded of her talent as my mom has several of her Chicken pictures. She will truly be missed.

Catherine helped teach me perseverance in the face of adversity; life can knock you down but it´s how you stand up and move forward with grace. The woman was a warrior. Rest in power, Catherine.
