Caitlin Besler is a contemporary painter who paints bold, colourful scenes and their wildlife inhabitants. Juxtaposing modern abstraction on traditional materials, Caitlin plays with the balance of capturing memories of adventure through whimsical compositions, while honouring and respecting traditional western themes. Being born and raised outside Calgary, Alberta, the mountains and rivers have fueled her outdoor enthusiasm and creative curiosity. Between fly fishing, hiking, and snowboarding, Caitlin has an abundance of inspiration she captures vibrantly on her canvas.
