Artist • Carol Barnett

Carol’s paintings are of the Northwest farmlands, mountains and seashore sometimes with a house settled into the landscape. She abstracts from nature by exaggerating shape, color and textures to convey her feelings about a place and not just describe the place.

Her media is watercolor or acrylic sometimes adding collage or pencil. Carol paints in the studio and plein air usually starting with sketches and gathering photo references to capture the fleeting light or a particular detail. Her hope is that a viewer can experience a place in a new way through my paintings.
