Cathleen's profile
Cathleen Sachse was born in Washington D.C. and put up for adoption at birth. Three months later she was adopted and taken home. Home was Wheaton, Md. a suburb of D.C. She lived in a poor, crime ridden neighborhood in an abusive home. At the age of 16 in very quick progression she had her father arrested, saw her childhood home get foreclosed on and moved to Towson, a relatively rich suburb of Baltimore to live with her grandparents. A year after moving she dropped out of high school and got her GED, graduating with honors.
She then spent much of her time hanging out on street corners and getting into trouble. After a few years she slowly decided to get her act together and started to work a string of jobs including being a traveling carnival worker, a waitress, and retail management. During all of this she was filling up sketchbooks with the creations from her head, and sketches of her companions.
Cathleen always knew she’d go back to school and excelled once she did. She first went to the local community college and received an AA in sculpture, graduating with honors. She then transferred to MICA where she obtained her bachelors degree in painting and an MFA from the Mount Royal School of Art
Cathleen currently lives with her husband, who is also an artist, and two rabbits.
