Catherine Perehudoff – Artist Biography

Catherine Perehudoff

Catherine Perehudoff is a second-generation landscape painter, daughter of Saskatoon artists Dorothy Knowles and William Perehudoff. She has been capturing, in paint, the beauty of the western landscape for over twenty-five years.

Her landscapes are alive with intimacy, capturing the prairie's vast expanses and immensity of the Rockies as a private experience for the viewer. A regular at the famous Emma Lake Workshops, Perehudoff has become a master at capturing the transient beauty of nature. From the open prairies and northern woods to quiet shores, she paints these scenes with soft yet densely applied brush strokes.

Known for her deft touch, Perehudoff depicts the land as ephemeral; a sensory experience of light, movement and colour. Her classes at the University of Saskatchewan and the Voss Folkschool in Norway have helped her develop her own unique approach to the landscape tradition. She has developed her painting skills under the tutelage of renowned painters such as Kenneth Noland, Reta Cowley and Barbara Ballachey.

Since 1979, Perehudoff has exhibited in over 50 solo and group shows and has been published in over 30 articles and magazines. Her work is in major collections including the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, the Canada Council Art Bank, the Mendel Art Gallery, the Whyte Museum, and the Robert McLaughlin Gallery.
