Cathy McMurray is a city girl who loves living near the mountains and the sea. The greatest inspiration for her art is the beautiful scenery that surrounds her. As a native to Portland, Oregon, the majestic mountains and the vast ocean are a constant in her life.

McMurray works with a variety of mediums and is intentional about using materials that are easy on the environment. The wood panels she uses are locally sourced, and she draws on paper that is recycled or made in mills using renewable energy.

In addition to creating art, she is passionate about sharing art with others. For many years, she was a schoolteacher and then a shop owner.
