Mythology By Caitlin Hackett

Caitlin Hackett’s work is a lush stew of the beautiful, grotesque, and fantastic; pulling from a wide spectrum of myths and fairy tales. Mostly rendered with ballpoint pens and watercolors, it exhibits a level of detail that I find irresistible.

    Oh, yay! Caity’s work stunned me instantly when I first saw it. You might be interested to know that the bottom image, “In the Aftermath,” is an approx. 4’x5′ large! The top one, which is untitled, is also around 4’x4′. Apparently she’s got a lovely huge work in development in her studio that I’m dying to see!

    Caitlin Hackett is such an amazing new talent. I have several of her works on my wall, and every day I am struck by the power and depth of her art.
