Carol began drawing as a child, and her formal art training started in college. She earned her bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Cal State Long Beach, and her love of nature drew her to the world of wildlife art. Her style is a delicate blend of color and detail, with an emphasis on the emotion and character of her subjects.
For her subject matter, Carol focuses mostly on the animals of North America. “This is my home and my experience. We have beautiful wild places here in our country that we need to respect and preserve.”
