I am Karin and La Cartrina is my creative studio. Although having my roots in Switzerland, I see myself as a citizen of the World. I love exploring and getting inspired by immersing myself into different cultures.
One of my favourite places I lived in is Mexico, where I got the inspiration for the name of my creative studio. It’s a combination of La Catrina (Mexico’s iconic figure) and Art, my passion.
I love using bold and bright colours to create joyful designs, which make you happy! I am inspired by all things mexican, cute, joyful, fresh and tropical but also like carnival, nature, botanicals and collages. A mix of everything!
