Carol has painted since childhood, and has sold both nationally and internationally. "I am fascinated with the complexity of painting, even in it's most simple expression". Inspired by Turner and the Impressionists. Carol continues through her art to explore through landscape, figure and dreams. Carol has had sell out exhibitions from her Private Gallery. The mother of two beautiful children, and co-director of the Gold Coast Gestalt Centre, she states she is incapable of not painting.
"Painting is, my meditation. I go where it takes me. It is like a universe to explore, in the safety of my home. Sometimes my brushes fly, sometimes a palette knife is everything, sometimes the painting is slow and methodical....it is for this reason, my paintings are broad in subject and style."
Her teachers include Australian Artist, John Wilson. Also, David Leffell and Sherrie McGraw, both U.S Master Artists and teachers renowned for their work, have recently acknowledged Carol as their Featured Artist. A rare and privileged acknowledgment.
