Hello!

I am Callie Catchpole, an illustrator based in Durham, North Carolina. I graduated from Kansas City Art Institute in 2025 with a BFA in Illustration. I work in the children’s media field illustrating picture books, licensing work, and creating fun products!

My illustration work is recognizable by its colorful worlds, textures, and funny imaginary creatures and characters. These ideas always begin in the form of doodles in my beloved sketchbook.

When I am not creating in my studio, I spend my time watching competition reality shows (Survivor, Big Brother, Hell’s Kitchen, etc.), doing my nails, and playing cozy video games.
