Cat Stanfield has been drawing and painting since childhood and formally studied design and fine arts at the Design Institute of San Diego.  Although born and raised in California, her years working in the fashion industry as a professional model for international legacy agency, Elite Model Management prompted a move to New York City and Paris, France.  During these years she furthered her artistic  exploration while maintaining a successful career being featured in fashion magazines, catalogs and commercial advertising campaigns worldwide. The influence those years had in shaping Cathy's creative style are prominent in her work which reflects a flair for fashion, feminine beauty and a dream-like sense of intrigue and sensuality.
