Cathy sketching in Patagonia.
It’s #marchmeetthemaker time again and I thought I’d introduce myself to you all that enjoy my drawings.
I’m Cathy Raingarden from Berkeley, CA, a visual storyteller who is an urban sketcher and illustrator. I illustrate for Edible East Bay (a culinary magazine), and the Castro Valley News.

Sketching at yet another protest today. Lots of support for Zelensky and positive honks from cars. My ‘walkit’ sketch bag works so well to sketch protests. @urbansketchers #protestsketch #cathyraingarden

I’m drawing flowers in between drawing at protest marches so that I can keep my sanity in these insane times.

My sketches are in the spring issue of Edible East Bay, a gorgeous art-filled foodie magazine. My strawberry sketches accompany an article on how to grow your own delicious strawberries. @edibleeastbay #foodie #eastbayfoodie #foodillustration #foodillustrator #homegrownstrawberries #cathyraingarden

I just finished my 75th sketchbook, which starts in Buenos Aires, Argentina and ends up in our lovely SF Bay Area. The sketchbook flip through is on my IG@cathyraingarden #urbansketching #cathyraingardenssketchbook #sketchbooktour #cathyraingarden

My Meerkat just turned 6! Happy Birthday, Meer! My scared rescue puppy has slowly turned into a happy, playful dog who brings me joy every day. May I have many more years with this sweet stealer of persimmons off the dining room table and socks off the floor. Life with a dog is overflowing with love

From my sketchbook page in ‘The Valley’ lifestyle magazine of the Castro Valley News. This was the controversial welcome sign to Castro Valley, CA before it was removed due to everyone’s dislike of it. I like it, though. What do you think? @castrovalleynews #castrovalleynews #cathyraingarden
