Richmond mom Catherine Jones painting kids’ rooms happy

When we launched our 2009 Richmondmom.com Beautiful Baby Contest, we were thrilled to parter with Catherine Jones of Catherine Jones Designs.
A look at her portfolio will show how she is able to fit a design to each child’s love—boating, nature, you name it! Our little beautiful baby, Katerina, is enjoying a beautiful set of artwork that Catherine designed for her. Since her parents thought they may be moving, they didn’t want to have to leave a mural behind. Catherine came up with the perfect solution! We know Richmond’s Beautiful Baby loves to see her very own name on her wall each morning, noon and night.
Catherine, pictured here, is a busy Richmond mom who has intertwined her love of art with delighting Richmond kids, and we think that rocks. Thanks, Catherine!
