Kaitlyn is an artist, graphic designer, and illustrator who lives with her husband and their crew of cats and dogs outside of Toronto.
Kaitlyn spent her childhood exploring the suburbs on her bike, filling her pockets with found 'treasures', and doodling on any piece of paper that came into her orbit. Today, she is still rarely found without some sort of ink or paint on her hands.
Fueled by a passion to explore and create, Kaitlyn attended OCAD University and acquired a Bachelor of Design. For the past 10 years, she has been a professional artist, graphic designer, and illustrator. Kaitlyn's expertise shines through in textiles and product design. She lovingly brings ideas to life using charming illustrations, engaging colour palettes, and a keen eye for detail. She finds inspiration in nature, people, vintage design and the little oddities of everyday life that are easy to overlook.
Skills include: Illustration, graphic design, creative direction, product design, collection design, packaging, trend research, lettering, typography, sculpture, gouache and acrylic painting, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Procreate.
