Portland Art Gallery Artist: Catherine Breer

Radio Maine with Dr. Lisa Belisle

Catherine Breer has been a prolific and popular Maine artist for decades, captivating the imaginations of art-lovers with her colorful landscapes and scenes of coastal living. A child of Christian missionaries, Catherine spent her childhood in Seoul, Korea, and has found herself influenced by the harmony of Buddhist imagery and thinking. She studied painting and drawing at the Atlanta College of Art (now a part of the Savannah College of Art and Design) and School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. A resident of Freeport, Catherine has worked for L.L. Bean as a graphic designer for many years, and recently joined the Portland Art Gallery as a means of broadening her artistic community and reaching a larger audience of those who love Maine art.
