Cathy Staughton is an established artist known for her vibrant and autobiographical work, using bold colours and dynamic black outlines.

Her imagery spans iconic depictions of Luna Park, startled cats, fantastical creatures, and wild roller coaster rides. Staughton’s work draws on her lived experience, blending the everyday with dreamlike narratives. Her work often explores themes of memory and personal identity, weaving elements like robots and winged angels into her paintings. Staughton’s practice is a celebration of the personal, presenting layered narratives that transcend time and mixing humour, nostalgia, and the fantastical to reflect her unique perspective.
