Bio:

Carol has been an artist and calligrapher for over 25 years. While exploring all kinds of mediums like oils, pastels, acrylics, sculpture and even various kinds of crafts, Carol always came back to her love of the letter form and the use of watercolor to compliment the words.

After taking many courses from Cooper School of Art, classes and seminars on calligraphy with such recognized artists and calligraphers as Arthur Baker, Timothy Botts and Julian Waters, to name a few, she turned to developing her own style of calligraphy in early 1980.

After studying Advanced Calligraphy & Illumination with Gene Schwartz of Akron, she became a member in many local, national and international art guilds and organizations. In the 1980's she began doing as many as 26 art shows and exhibits, juried and nonjuried, every year and developed her own clientele.

While accumulating many awards and recognition's she began speaking and doing demonstrations on TV and to local groups. Since then, she has owned three Art Galleries, a Gift Shop and a Coffee Shop, all of which exhibited and sold her artwork.

Since 1995 Carol has been working form her studio at home on many corporate and personal commissions as well as a calligraphy book of original religious poems written by Gerald Headd. Her responsibilities regarding the book has involved the artistic interpretation of the words of some 50 poems into art and calligraphy for an 8 ½ x 11 format, along with designing the cover and doing all other text in calligraphy.

She is presently looking for a publisher to choose from over 400 of her many original works varying in size from 2 inches square to 20 x 24. Some include calligraphy and are of various subject matters. Her medium usually consists of watercolors, inks, gouaches and acrylics.
