Storyteller and art maker

Hello I'm Katelin, but you can call me Katie.
I am a creative interested in imaginative storytelling and themes surrounding play.

You will often see me drawing, painting, sculpting/felting puppets in handmade sets and trying lots of crafts. I am a huge animation enthusiast, so I sometimes dabble in stop motion and hand drawn 2D sequences too!
When I'm not in my home studio tinkering away, you will often find me rambling daydreams and absurdities with my partner, reading curled up with my cats or dancing in my living room (well, you won't see me doing that, but it is a sure way I recharge creatively)
 

My work explores nostalgia and childlike wonder in a whimsical, and sometimes eerie, manner. I would describe it as playful as I am often found following ‘what if’ imagination tangents and exploring hidden worlds both imagined and through perspective shifts. Playing is such a transformative experience via reconnecting with the inner child, which my art practice both explores and acts as a vehicle for my own self.
