Jocelyn Catterson is a multidisciplinary artist and environmental educator based out of Del Norte, Colorado.

Jocelyn’s intricate, place-based works are rooted in the ecological and agricultural landscapes of the San Luis Valley. Her art explores the visual rhythms of natural systems through detailed, layered compositions that integrate natural history, science, and storytelling. Her practice is deeply tied to the landscape, using art as a tool to translate environmental data and field observations into research-driven visual narratives.

Influenced by nature journaling, cartography, and scientific illustration, Jocelyn weaves together delicate linework, texture, and organic pattern. By drawing attention to the often unseen forces shaping the land—such as groundwater depletion, climate shifts, and land-use change—her work offers an immersive reflection on the fragile balance between human communities and their environments.

Beyond the studio, Jocelyn engages in community collaborations, public art projects, and interdisciplinary partnerships with scientists, farmers, and conservation organizations. She was named the Colorado Art + Science + Environment Fellow in 2023, where she deepened her exploration of water systems and land transitions. Through her work, she seeks to foster ecological awareness, inspire learning, and offer new ways of seeing the landscapes that sustain us.
