About the Artwork:

This piece is a reflection on a very challenging year. We are emerging from a very long dark winter, but the ever-present light guides us and helps us to remember that everything is temporary. With every night the sun will rise again, and with every cold winter, the spring will surely come. Even tragedy will give way to the most joyous of occasions.  We hold vigil for those that are no longer with us, but we keep the flame alive in remembrance and hope. – Catherine Moore

(Artist Bio)

Catherine Moore is a Bay Area based artist and illustrator. Her work explores the magic and mystery of what we do not yet understand with the beauty of what is already proven and tangible. Catherine’s paintings call the viewer to that marriage of classical and haunting beauty, resembling in subtlety and natural colorings the feeling of another time. With a background in traditional illustration her works often weave a narrative incorporating symbolism and dark humor. She often creates works inspired by movies, books, and folklore frequently focused on themes of the supernatural and imagination.


Catherine has exhibited in galleries across the U.S., Europe, and Australia. She is currently represented by Peter Pop Art Agency for her commercial illustration work and is the co-host of the Off the Easel podcast. Catherine lives in San Leandro, CA with her husband, son, and a dog named Elvis.
