HEYA!
Kaitlin Brito is a Peruvian-American award winning illustrator based in New Jersey.
Kaitlin loves to make images with a "sparkle" using careful linework, bright colors, and a playful sense of nostalgia; often finding the whimsy in the mundane.
(She also loves animating said work when given the opprotunity, *wink* *wink*)
​
When Kaitlin isn't drawing, she can be found frequenting estate sales for vintage finds, creating collages out of the many pictures in her camera roll, or making sandwiches out of just about anything.​
