Description
Catherine M. Wood
Exhibited 1880-1939

Catherine Wood was a painter of still life, flowers and genre scenes in robust vivid colours but with a delicacy of touch that is quite simply supreme.

She studied at the Royal Female School of Art (established 1842) after winning a Scholarship there in 1879. In 1892 she married fellow painter Richard Henry Wright who specialized in architectural and landscape scenes.

Wood prospered quickly, hers was a precocious talent and she began a 42 year association with the Royal Academy in 1880, exhibiting 97 paintings within its hallowed portals. She went on to become an Associate of the Society of Women Artists in 1893. During her prestigious career she showed at the New English Art Club, the Royal Society of British Artists (26 works), was a Member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Oils (32 works) and the Royal Society of British Artists, Suffolk Street where she showed 26 paintings, and showed an incredible 513 paintings at the Walker Galleries.

Her work is distinctive, painterly in technique, delicate in its treatment of the subject matter and accomplished as befits an artist of her pedigree.

She lost her husband in 1930 and stopped exhibiting at the outbreak of war in 1939, one can only speculate as to her reasoning.
