About the Artist
Meet the creator of Nap Cat Art and learn about the inspiration behind the name
Hi! My name is Naomi Peter-Simons (but you can call me Nao), and I’m an artist and designer from Vancouver Island, BC.
I’ve been happily making art since I could first hold a pencil. Throughout my life I’ve explored many different mediums, and fallen in love with each one: whether it’s painting, photography, writing, filmmaking, or screen printing. It’s my goal to keep learning and getting better, and above all to enjoy the whole messy chaotic creative process of life.
Currently I’m working on expanding my freelance business, and am excited to be launching my new monthly print club! Sign up to receive cute cat-themed art each month, and support an independent creator in doing what she loves.
Meet the Nap Cats
Primrose & Katniss are sister cats I adopted in 2015 through CatSpan, a wonderful organization that cares for feral and stray cats in Nanoose Bay and the surrounding areas. I’ve always been a crazy cat lady, so it seemed only fitting to name my business after them. You can find them most days napping in their catio or on my lap, peacefully drooling onto my laptop.
