Catherine Howe paints images focusing almost exclusively on female subjects.  Her figurative paintings to date have deployed singular females emerging from  painterly grounds and more recently, young women posing in nostalgic studio  settings. Neither narrative scenes nor portraits in the traditional sense, these  images often thwart efforts to attain any particular understanding of the depicted  woman. Presented concurrently with Some WOMEN/ PRETTY girls exhibition.
