Artist’s Statement
I have always had a fascination with watercolor. The difficulty of the medium challenges me and the transparent layering can not be replicated with any other medium. I challenge myself to push the medium by creating saturated colors and let the white of the paper sparkle through to create my dramatic lights. I love the process of being a still life painter. My intention is for the viewer to be captivated by the beauty and light of the piece and for it to give them an amazing visual experience. My goal is to make the ordinary, extraordinary.

Great interview Carrie and Gabriel. Carrie brought up so many points I could identify with, especially having lived outside the United States for many years, and knew nothing about the large community of watercolorists and workshops! I really love Carrie‘s work and enjoyed meeting her at a FWS convention!
