Artist's
Profile Carol Reeves divides her time between Maine and Connecticut. This provides her with plein-air painting opportunities that would fill any painters palette. Also, her travels allow her to paint on location throughout the U.S. and Europe. Working in both oils and pastels, her painterly approach using lively brush strokes and bold color have earned her the title of “colorist”. |
A hot under painting offers her the
opportunity for juxstapositioning cool over hot,
creating a sparkling effect that allows her paintings to glimmer.
