Carol's Natural Florida Series, Landscape and Wildlife Paintings of Florida
My art is how I translate the enjoyment that I get from nature into paintings, which is why I say, "A painting is a feeling seen"
To extensively study my subjects and plan each painting I use my camera and Adobe Photoshop. Only when it is well prepared will I then choose my paints, usually oil or acrylic and begin to execute it. I employ painting styles from high realism to highly textured and painterly, whatever I think will convey my experience of each scene and subject most effectively.
When you look at my paintings you will see that I like strong; strong shapes, compositions, colors and values. This reflects both my personality and the powerful experiences with nature that my paintings portray.
