Caroline is a contemporary abstract painter living in South Derbyshire. Her work is inspired by the visual ambiguity of the painted surface. By the performative process of paint, she creates works that give the viewer space to breath and just look, feel emotion and question. She is excited by process, using not only brushes but many varied tools and mark making implements, powerful colours, texture and chiaroscuro, creating many layers that result in powerful atmospheric surfaces. Caroline attempts to create art that is cathartic, to escape an ever increasing frenetic world. 

She is often inspired by music, countryside, sea and architecture. Her works use shifting spaces that bounce between freedom and control. She is intrigued by how we perceive and emotional visual sensations.

Caroline received a first class Degree in Fine Art from the University of Derby. She also received the Vice Chancellors Award and her work is in the University collection. Following her success she was awarded the Gertrude Aston Bowater Scholarship Award towards her Masters in Fine Art at the University of Birmingham, which she completed in 2017. Caroline has exhibited in the UK and internationally.
