Kaitlin Hoyt is a Canadian visual artist who explores themes of connectivity and kinship through whimsical fusions of flora and fauna. Inspired by early scientific illustration and fantastical fairytales, Hoyt combines precise detail with dreamy playfulness that speaks to her fascination in both the natural and imaginary. With acrylic and coloured pencil, her paintings express admiration for nature's ability to persist and adapt--traits that have driven her own evolving self-taught practice.
Overcoming her fear of painting in 2019, Hoyt has since graduated ArtsLink's CATAPULT arts accelerator, participated in artist residencies including the renowned Kingsbrae International Residency of the Arts, published multiple children's books, and continues to grow a flourishing audience to which she sells her work world-wide.
