ARTIST’S BIO

Studying Russian history and anthropology at the University of New Mexico, she thought of a career in research and writing After years of being a wife, homemaker and mother, Carolyn decided her passion for art was going to be more than just a hobby. She embarked on a new career as a professional painter and is gratified that her oils have been well received by the public.
