Cathy McAllister – Artist Spotlight

Tell us about your artwork.
Hi, I’m Cathy McAllister. I am an up-cycle wood artist. I collect and find different wood items and make them into something else and paint them. Sometimes the items remain the same however they come out with a different spin on them.

Describe how art is important to society.
Art is really important to society. It helps you become creative and work outside of the box. I think it’s stimulating and helps motivate people and keep them active. It also gives you a really good perspective on different situations.

How would you describe yourself as an artist?
I am a fun-loving artist who likes to do different things and try and stretch my talents. So many things that you look at and see help motivate you and gives you a little more inspiration. I like to be creative and make people happy and laugh. When I do my artwork, I like to just have fun and not be very serious. I love to do it for enjoyment.

Has your style changed over time?
My art styles have changed over time. I believe they’re getting a little more refined and a little more whimsical. I do like to try different colors different items and different medias.

Describe your dream project.
Not sure I have a dream project, but I think it would be fun to make a large papier-mâché animal. Not sure why just would be interesting and a lot of fun.

What superpower would you have and why?
Not even sure how to answer this question. I am not sure I have a superpower. I think I just have a lot of determination, but I don’t think that’s a superpower. Just wanna have fun and enjoy what I do!
