Biography
Caitlin Davis is a Toowoomba-based artist who works primarily in portraiture and still life. Her preferred mediums include printmaking, chalk pastels and charcoals. Through her artworks, she explores concepts such as the male gaze, and the media-induced conviction of the perfectibility of women’s looks, which she deliberately attempts to disrupt. Her interests also extend to the uncontrived, organic beauty of flora and fauna.
Influences
Caitlin is influenced by a diverse range of female artists including Jenny Saville, Frida Kahlo and Artemisia Gentileschi.
