“Kaitlynn Copithorne is an artist and illustrator based in Calgary, Canada. Her work explores the conflicts and compatibilities that arise when the natural and man-made worlds collide, often by assigning ‘human’ traits to animal subjects and ‘animal’ traits to human subjects. Influenced heavily by Grimm’s fairy-tales and other folklore sources, combined with the wild harshness of ranch life in the rural Canadian west, her work ranges from lush florals reminiscent of medieval tapestry to sharp line work inspired by printmaking processes. She works in digital, painting, and printmaking media.”
