Pipsticks + Catalina Williams 2020 Collab

Everyone at the Pips studio instantly became HUGE fans of Catalina Williams after she submitted artwork to us via our artwork submission form. Her work is the perfect blend of fresh and nostalgic, her color palettes are unexpected and rich, her illustration is graphic and gestural all at the same time - she's the complete package. After scrolling her Insta feed I felt like I needed ALLLL of her illustrations in sticker form! Catalina Williams + Pipsticks Collab After including two of her designs in past Sticker Club packs, I reached out to see if she would be up for another collaboration. She graciously accepted and promptly delivered a suite of illustrations that perfectly fit the upcoming April Pro Sticker Club theme of self-care. For our April sticker pack, we printed her illustrations on pretty, matte paper and added little pops of neon to make the colors sing. We love the ladies she drew, and know you'll have a million uses for the cameras, eye masks, and other gorgeous illustrations she created!

I really wanted to be John Lennon. How long have you been in the creative industry? I went to school for architecture about 10 years ago, then I started painting, and for the last 3 years, I'm dedicated to illustration and graphic design.

Once I finish working I move on to personal projects or painting just for fun. Catalina Williams painting Do you have a favorite pen? Pilot FriXion!

Stickers, art supplies, trying to draw people while they are not watching, cooking Chilean food for my American friends (my specialty is veggie empanadas) and reading. When did you fall in love with stickers? At six years old when I got my first Sandylion stickers with an album included.
What don't you like? I don't like meat, I hate climate change and cruise ships. What's something that you're secretly good at? I'm secretly good at math. I even tried to make art out of math formulas. What's the thing you're most proud of making? Every time that I get to show my art in a gallery I feel like a 5-year-old girl who got her wishes to come true. What's an exciting idea you've had recently? I've been thinking of painting over cardboard boxes and recycled materials. Catalina Williams Sketchbook Catalina Williams Clay What's your favorite color combo right now? A greenish dark blue, olive green, and hot pink.
