Madeline Downham S.O.F.A.

I have been sketching and painting for as long as I can remember. Although I enjoy aspects of many mediums, I now work primarily in oil and on a small scale. My work tends to be finely detailed. In recent times I have begun to include the use of metal leaf.

Felines play huge role both in my work and my life. I love their interconnectedness with us and their wild independence. Membership with SOFA has encouraged me to explore the cat in art further. I have exhibited with other societies including SWA and SWLA, I also teach, do commissioned work (including portraiture). I also have themed pieces hanging in a number of Churches.
