Catherine Crowe:
A life long interest in art eventually brought Catherine Crowe to experiment with enamels. She was drawn at first to the vivid colours and timeless nature of the medium. Her true inspiration came, however, when she travelled to Ireland, her father's native land, to study traditional music in 1984. It was there that she discovered that the Celts were Europe's first
enamellists. Already steeped in the music and literature of this ancient culture, it was a natural step to incorporate early Celtic designs into her artwork. Each piece has its own story, informed by research in early history, archaeology and folklore. Catherine's work mirrors the past, and speaks to the present through ancient symbols. Catherine is active in her community promoting Celtic Art.
