# Kaitlyn Edington
*Art teacher and travel sketchbook artist*

Kaitlyn Edington is a Pittsburgh-based art educator and the founder of "Art with Mrs. E." She is best known for her warm, joyful approach to sketchbooking, inspired by her love of travel, everyday life, and making art feel accessible to everyone. Working primarily in watercolor, gouache, and mixed media, Kaitlyn creates sketchbook lessons, tutorials, and resources designed to help both kids and adults build a confident, sustainable creative practice. Her travel sketchbook series, capturing destinations across Europe, has earned her a devoted and growing online following.

Kaitlyn has spent more than 15 years as a certified elementary art teacher, an experience that shapes everything she creates. She founded "Art with Mrs. E" as a way to extend her passion for teaching beyond the classroom and has since grown it into a thriving creative brand, including her own product line as co-founder of Quell. Her work has been featured on CBS Pittsburgh, and in 2025 she hosted her first art retreat in the South of France, followed by a retreat in Slovenia, turning her lifelong love of sketchbooking into guided trips for fellow artists.

Kaitlyn regularly shares her creative process, tutorials, and lessons across Instagram and Patreon, offering an encouraging and accessible window into sketchbook art-making. Her warm, down-to-earth approach is at the heart of everything she does, whether she's teaching in her classroom, sketching at her dining room table, or guiding others on retreat to find a joyful, sustainable art practice of their own.
