About Studio Hetty Cate

Hi!  I'm Hetty Cate. Hetty Catherine, to be exact.  So, Hetty Cate.  I am the artist behind Studio Hetty Cate. I am a lifelong artist who cannot look at a blank space without imagining it filled with coloor.  I enjoy getting to work with new media, and will become obsessed with one media for a period of time before moving onto another.  When I find a media I like, I return to it again and again.  

I am also a proud mother, a voracious reader, and I love to spend time outdoors.  Especially by the ocean.  I currently live with one cat who knows she is the center of the universe and all things revolve around her.  

Welcome!

I create whimsical mythology and nature-inspired illustrations, drawing on my love of light, texture, fantasy, and the quiet beauty of the natural world. My work explores the fine line between illustration and fine art — pieces that feel at home both as a gallery print and a daily companion.

Each design in the studio begins as an original artwork and is thoughtfully reproduced on high-quality materials — from stretched canvas prints to everyday items like tote bags and journals — so you can bring a little of that beauty into your everyday life.

I also enjoy creating beautiful and useful handmade goods.  From time to time I will make drops of such goods-join my newsletter to be the first to know when new drops are made!

Thank you for visiting the studio. I hope something here speaks to you.
