I am moving...
I have previously kept my patroness' identity anonymous but now I shall reveal that her name is Maria of Austria. Upon her resignation of her post as Regent of the Low Countries, she has invited Christian and I to retire with her in Spain.
I will officially be retiring as a commissioned artist, I may do a few small works in my available time.
Thank you for being there with me along this journey.
Hot off the market!
That is right my fine audience, your’s truly is now a married woman!
The lucky man is Christian de Morien an organist at the Antwerp Cathedral.
His organ playing lights up my life.
Portrait of a man. Oil on Panel. 36.2 x 29.2 cm. 1552.
(And what a man indeed!)
Hold the applause.
Ladies and gentlemen it is official, I am renowned!
Do you want to look serene, ethereal, important, swagged out; all things you already know about yourself but need reassurance of within your own home?
Hit me up, Saint Luke’s Guild.
Portrait of a woman. Oil on Panel. 40.9 x 30.1 cm. 1551.
I had been trying my hand at a neutral background. How do you all like this compared to my usual dark background?
Dante’s Inferno!
I damn you to the ninth circle!
They just do not make dowels like they used to...
Portrait of a 42-year-old man. Oil on Panel. 22 cm x 17 cm. 1549.
With this recent commission I had been able to put my skills to the test and paint a male sitter.
Who says a woman cannot paint...

First commission everyone! Sorry for the lack of updates my apprenticeship did not allow me much time away from my work. As you all could have guessed... I got in!
You are now looking at one highly sought after female painter! #wanted
Unfortunately, because my works are commissioned for private homes I cannot release the name of the sitter... Although, I could not help myself as to show you my work!
Send Your Prayers!
Greetings all!
I am pleased to announce that I have sent in my application to the Guild of Saint Luke.
Step One: Apply! Step Two: Fame and Fortune! Step Three: Die Wealthy...
oh father...
Just to let off a little steam here,
Does anyone else have trouble with assuring their parents that they are an adult? After having my father as my mentor it is hard for me to be certain as my own artist. He has heavily influenced me but sometimes one must go their own way... Do not worry father, I am getting my work out there!
Portrait of a 22-year-old woman playing the spinet. Oil on Panel. 32.2 x 25.7 cm. 1548
Second work of the year! Same outfit because style does not take a day off.
Self-Portrait. Oil on Oak. 31 x 24.5 cm. 1548.
I, Caterina van Hemessen have painted myself /1548/ age 20.
Here is my first work as an official artist, it is very innovative if I do say so myself. I have depicted my likeliness painting my likeliness #Inception. Of course I have decked myself out in the finest of velvet because I cannot actually wear this while painting... But as far as my audience knows, I always look this good.
