About Me
Hey there! My name is Naomi, better known online as Cat or CatBolt.
I’m a Christian 20-something artist with a passion for storytelling & characters. I love designing characters with complex backstories and then putting them in Situations™. People will tell you I’m obsessed with robots, and I’m here to tell you… uhhm… they may be right. You know what, why don’t you take a look around and decide for yourself?
What I do
um. mostly art, really

Animation
I have what you might call a love-hate relationship with animation. I love bringing movements to life, but it’s so easy to get lost in the details and spend forever on an animation with a runtime of five seconds xD. I work primarily in Toon Boom Harmony and Procreate Dreams, but I’m always open to learn more!

Character Design
Designing and doodling characters is one of my favourite things to do, and almost second nature. I’ve found that I struggle to design characters that I had no hand in inventing, my preference being to work on the story as well as the design. However, I’m always up for a challenge, so if you need help giving a character shape hit me up!

Writing
I’m a storyteller at heart, and sometimes when art is too slow, I return to my roots and write instead. I’m currently in the process of writing a book, you can follow the process right here on the website! Many of the characters you see here are featured in it, so if you’re interested be sure to check out the Projects tab*.
*small disclaimer: the website is currently still under construction, so there may not *be* a Projects tab. If so, my apologies, its being worked on.
Why Me
This is a question I ask myself every day. Why me? Why couldn’t someone else have ended up in whatever precarious niche problem I’ve managed to spin myself into? I have no answer to this question that I can offer you, so instead I have a neat little percentage bar to the right here that tells you a bit of what you’ll find if you should choose to stick around. And who knows, it might even give some insight as to why it’s ME that’s always out of food wheneven I’m hungriest. Like seriously, what’s up with that? Doing groceries is hard.

The team
I mean I don’t really have a “team”– I do all this chaos myself, it’s all authentic genuine CatBolt Madness. But uhh… if you’re looking for more cool people to check out, I can give you a hand for sure.
