Bonjour!
My full name is Catherine Berruer but it’s easier if you just call me Cat! I am French-Australian and have been living in Melbourne since 1994. French is my first language, c’est vrai!
Just Call Me Cat is my one-woman illustration practice since 2014. However I have more than 10 years of experience working in the design industry. Most of my work has been for the Arts, entertainment or education. Illustration and graphic design, styling and brand stories, project management, client liaison… I combine all these skills to help solve your creative mysteries!
My work is very much influenced by vintage-style imagery, femininity and nostalgia, retro pop-culture, folklore and mythology. My core values are the foundations for my inspiration, and with this in mind, I would love to collaborate brands and individuals who work towards positive social change. I endeavour to celebrate diversity, to create connections, all the while depicting all individuals with elegance, flair and humour.
I would love for my illustrations to be a representation of a progressive, inclusive and environmentally conscious community. My work is often character driven although I am very versatile with my illustrative work : flora, fauna, music or dance, fashion or entertainment... I love to show movement and connections. I am intentional and passionate about telling stories through my art.
My approach to each project is tailored to the individual. I offer valuable design advice, creative sensitivity and each piece is crafted with love and care.
Drawing is my passion and I get great enjoyment in creating bespoke artworks for my clients. I hope you enjoy what you see, please feel free to contact me to discuss commissions.
