Caitlin B. Alexander is an illustrator originally from Austin, Texas and newly settled in Manitou Springs, Colorado.
Her work focuses on a representation of repeat patterns, color and texture in our natural world, observations of daily life, and messages of strength and acceptance, via hand-lettered typography. She is forever looking for inspiration in our National Parks, and hopes her work will encourage people to explore and protect these beautiful lands we call home. Some additional subjects and topics she frequently illustrates in addition to travel are books/reading, cats, social activism, plants and people.
Caitlin primarily works digitally, but also paints in gouache, with a particular love for dry-brushing.
