For those who need more:

I like to compare and contrast human behavior, trying to provide a new perspective of our surroundings. To get better insight into the human condition I focus on transitory thoughts, usually discarded through the day. I extend time, to confront and reflect on these fractional experiences, giving them a weight usually reserved for overarching themes and daytime dramas. I capture moments through a variety subjects and mediums including ink, acrylic, watercolor and clay.

This is the beginning of a conspiracy:

You can call me Katie; I'm the lady behind NotFromCaves. I grew up in the suburbs of Maryland. I reside in a lovely apartment in Brooklyn house in Salt Lake City camper van some where in North America with Dylan and all my unsold art.

Currently I freelance as a Mechanical Engineer to pay the bills. My free time is consumed with avoiding the darkness inside my head. Making art is not at the top of my list at the moment, and I am working on a website that is a map of my mind exploring emotions, memories and reflections.

If you want to say hello, or are interested in purchasing something, shoot me an email at notfromcaves(at)gmail.com or visit my ESTY SHOP.

What happens when you are on the verge of an ego death and then a pandemic unleashes a turbulent environment of chaos? oh yeah I don’t know either, that wasn’t about me.
