I began arranging objects for this still life with a clear intention: to explore the depth and variety of greens. I spent time adjusting elements, capturing photographs, and considering subtle shifts in composition. Rather than painting directly from life, I worked from these captured moments, allowing space for the composition to evolve.

As the painting took shape, something unexpected emerged. While the variations of green remained central, a dynamic interplay of contrasts unfolded—light against dark, warm against cool, vintage against new. The title Lemon and Lavender came up in conversation and immediately resonated with me. There was a balance in both name and color that seemed to bring harmony to the piece.

This painting feels like a collage of moments and influences, woven together through layers of color and contrast. It serves as a reminder that even with a clear vision, the creative process often leads to surprising and magical destinations.

Ms. Martzloff returned to painting about 15 years ago after some life changes. In that process, she took a risk and departed from her job to create some space for healing.  She focused on raising her daughter and finding new work, while re-committing to her art to see where it might take her.  During this time Catherine had started taking an art class locally focusing on drawing to re-connect with the basics. About a year later, she was encouraged to move into painting by one of her mentors.  Although she was hesitant, it wasn’t long before it became clear this was right where she needed to be.

Quickly, memories returned surrounding the joy in painting. As an art major in college, this is where hours would like seconds. This was happening again, even with the frustrations of starting over from what felt like the beginning.  With diligence and commitment she practiced, supplementing classes with drawing and painting in her spare time and by connecting with local artists; shifting between plein-air painting and developing a studio practice.

Ms. Martzloff began showing her drawings and some paintings in 2011 receiving acceptance into a variety of local juried shows which provided affirmation to keep going.  A personal flow emerged that extended from her consistent practice and willingness to move out of comfort zones.  Along the way, a shift occurred in her approach and to how she was seeing things.  The imagery rendered on the canvas became more vibrant and simple with an element of wonder infused into the sophisticated compositions.  

Ms. Martzloff was born in Vancouver, BC and currently lives in New Jersey, USA. She has a small business sitting/boarding dogs and continues to paint daily and sell her artwork around the globe.  She is continually inspired by many masters and loves the Expressionists.  Her desire is to continue to develop paintings that keep the viewer engaged in something beyond the surface.
