Every animal has a unique character and appeal of its own, and this is what I aim to portray in my artwork. I'm always on the lookout for that special quirky expression or pose that I can photograph for future reference in my studio. More recently I've been busy with commission work, and this is now my main focus. I work hard to paint a lifelike but characterful portrait that really portrays the spirit of the animal I'm working on. I even talk to them as they start to emerge from the canvas! My main passion now is to continue to develop the facial expression and eyes of each subject I paint. I hope you enjoy browsing through my website. Thank you for visiting.. Carolyn
