Cat Coquillette—known professionally as CatCoq—is a world-traveling artist, designer, and educator whose work is shaped by firsthand experiences across cultures, landscapes, and communities around the globe. Originally from the United States, Cat now lives and works as a location-independent artist, creating art while traveling full-time and drawing inspiration directly from the places she visits.

From painting florals found in the jungles of Vietnam to illustrating exotic wildlife inspired by the Amazon Rainforest or designing patterns influenced by Scandinavian textiles, Cat’s artwork reflects a deep appreciation for culture, nature, and exploration. Her signature style is instantly recognizable for its bright pops of color, vibrant typography, and a harmonious blend of hand-painted brushwork with clean vector illustration—each piece capturing the spirit of a place while carrying uplifting messages of positivity and curiosity.

As the founder of CatCoq, Cat has built an illustration and design brand rooted not only in aesthetic joy, but in storytelling and inspiration. She shares her artwork alongside detailed narratives of her travels through social media, offering an immersive window into both her creative process and nomadic lifestyle. Her portfolio spans art prints, home décor, tech accessories, apparel, and lifestyle products—brought to life through art licensing partnerships with major brands around the world.

Cat’s work has reached a wide audience, appearing on best-selling products and worn or shared by celebrities including Hilary Duff, Khloé Kardashian, Lucy Hale, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Lauren Conrad, and Jessica Simpson. Despite her global reach, she remains deeply committed to accessibility and community, believing strongly in collaboration over competition.

Education and empowerment are central to Cat’s mission. She offers online art and entrepreneurship classes that help creatives build sustainable, independent careers. Running her entire business while constantly on the move, Cat’s “office” may be a café, coworking space, or airport terminal—but her creative vision remains grounded in connection, curiosity, and growth.

Through CatCoq, Cat Coquillette aspires to do more than create beautiful art. Her work encourages people to explore beyond the familiar, expand their horizons, and develop a deeper understanding of the world—and themselves — in collaboration with DenimINK.
