I am Caitlyn Harrington, but I usually go by Cate and I am from Nashua, New Hampshire. I love to go hiking, go to yoga, painting and hanging with friends in my free time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I enjoy going to art museums and looking at architecture, however, art does not play as big of a role in my life as I would like it to. I have always enjoyed painting and drawing, but as an engineering student, I struggle with incorporating this hobby into my day-to-day life. I hope to incorporate the arts into my life further after graduation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have taken Essentials of Art, Digital Art and Modern American Architecture throughout my time at WPI. I also took Innovation Through Making, which utilized many of the tools located in the makerspace, including the laser cutter and 3D printers. I have lots of experience using solidworks and creating CAD models and I do research in the Medmaln Labs, so I have access to the CNC machines, although I have not used them frequently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love to paint in my free time. I think its really nice way to reduce stress. I volunteer with Big Brothers, Big Sisters once a week and often bring paints to destress with my little, Bella. I also like to sew. In highschool, I often thrifted my clothes and altered them to make them unique to my style. Unfortunately I do not have my sewing machine in Worcester. I am not the most talented artist, but I think it\u2019s important to express yourself creatively and bring your ideas to life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing you should know about me is I am always running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I have a part time job for an MEP company in Boston, I do research on campus, and I am involved in many clubs. Despite my packed schedule I always get my work done on time and I am a very motivated student.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made these pants during my senior year of high school. I altered them to fit me, then painted them to suit my own style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was my Essentials of Art final. We had to take an original art piece and ass our own twist to it (or in this case I added myself). It was done on paper with colored pencils. Drawing is not my strong-suit, but this piece shows a lot of improvement from my earlier work in this class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The above pieces are all painted onto a ping pong table. My friends and I spent all summer creating this decorative piece to be displayed in our apartment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are canvases and letters that I made for my little.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the little keychain that I made using the laser cutter for Innovation Through Making. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I created this image in my Digital Art class. It was a color study created in Illustrator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I made this sweatshirt for my friends birthday. I drew the design on my ipad and used my cricut to create the iron on. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
