The Old Burrow





Illustrations from the threshold



magic . north . truth



Welcome to
The Old Burrow
a place of quiet magic and timeless illustration



Creating paintings and worlds for collectors, commissions and books.




Home of freelance artist and illustrator Catkin van Hoppe, where each painting is a doorway into The Old Burrow's world.
Rooted in the magic of fairy tale landscapes and brushed with the warmth of a bygone-age, these works are quiet places for the heart - where stories gather like moths to lamplight, and wonder still lingers in the air.







Blackbird at dawn
crown of the morn,
still starlit eyes
sing forth the day



ENTER THE OLD BURROW

Lights aglow through curling mist, and the world tilts just a little towards magic...
