Available to hire
Hi, I’m Caitlin Blanding, a studio artist, photographer, and designer with a lifelong practice spanning oil painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, and digital design. I bring the same attentiveness and creative rigor to every project—whether it’s a painted portrait, an exhibition poster, or a new design challenge. I also welcome opportunities to share additional portfolio pieces on request.
I’m passionate about storytelling through imagery and color, and I enjoy collaborating across disciplines to craft work that resonates with audiences.
