Cathy Hayt's Platypus Studios

"Hello" from the "Bean" in Millennium Park, Chicago.

Hi! I’m Cathy Hayt, and I live on the edge of Purdue’s Campus, in West Lafayette, Indiana. With the help of my father, I’ve put together a pretty decent wood shop which lets me bring to life all sorts of things. Some of my favorites include a lap steel guitar, amplifier cabinets and an assortment of wood, metal and glass wall hangings.

I’m also an avid photographer who loves to photograph nature….and dogs. A great picture of dogs playing, can’t help but brighten your day. Happily, I’m also frequently called upon to photograph friend’s bands and equipment.

Mosaics also occupy a portion of my time. My most well received pieces are un-grouted mosaic fish made from iridescent tile on aluminum.   In the last year or so I've discovered how much fun it can be to design fabric.  If you're interested in keeping up on the latest projects, please check out my blog.  And if something you've seen here sparks your interest, please contact me.  I'd love to make something unique, just for you.
