Katiemo grew up in the artist’s town of St. Ives on the north coast of Cornwall in England. She went to study at Falmouth College of Arts and later graduated from Central Saint Martins in London, where she currently lives and works as both illustrator and graphic designer.
With a love of flora and fauna, her illustrations explore the intricacy and beauty of nature through contemporary themes, in turn celebrating life through rich, bold colours and swirling shapes.
She works in acrylic, pencil, ink and finally Photoshop where she creates her finished mixed media pieces.
Since solely focussing on nature, she has combined her passion for illustrating animals with her love of positive psychology and well-being. With beautiful hand-lettering, her illustrations feature affirmations to bring gratitude and empowerment.
Through her art, Katiemo hopes to inspire people to live full and happy lives.
