Kaitlyn Derrah
“In my work, I try to capture the feelings, sounds and visuals of the subject that inspired the piece. By using different mediums and tools to achieve my end goal, I hope that the viewer or person who interacts with the object sees the time and intention that goes into creating the work, and becomes inspired in turn.”
