Danielle Cather-Cohen is a Charleston-based impressionist and colorist with over 30 years of experience creating fine art rooted in emotion, movement, and the expressive power of color. Mentored from a young age by renowned American painter Evelyn Leavens, Danielle developed a lifelong devotion to the interaction between color and spirit, an artistic philosophy that continues to define her work today.
Working primarily in oil, along with watercolor, gouache, pencil, and epoxy, her collections span abstract and contemporary compositions, figurative studies, landscapes, wildlife, and signature nautical and seascape works. Her paintings are collected worldwide and are known for their ability to evoke mood, depth, and a sense of place.
At the heart of every piece is Danielle’s guiding philosophy:
“I strive for the essence of beauty ,a dance with color.”
Seven years ago, Danielle expanded her fine art practice into a luxury wallcovering line, translating her original paintings into repeat patterns that brought her expressive use of color and movement onto a larger scale. This evolution marked the beginning of a natural transition from canvas to interiors, laying the foundation for a broader home and textile collection that allows her art to live beyond the gallery and into everyday spaces.
