Greetings! I’m Caitlin.
I am a mixed media artist and illustrator, which means I use a lot of different materials to make art that sometimes tells a story. I grew up near the ocean and I find inspiration from nature–in addition to my family, furry friends, and dessert!
I have taught studio art for over 10 years and I am continually inspired by the curiosity, creativity and intuition of children, especially when making art. Their approach is unedited and often experimental, and I try to emulate this when making work and when encouraging other budding artists.
For me, it is all about the process. I love to play around with different ways of making marks–some of my favorite tools and materials include crayons, watercolor, acrylic ink, hand-painted collage paper, and even shaving cream! I use digital media as a tool to explore new boundaries of making art as well.
