I can render anything and I welcome a challenge. My favorite subject matter would be lush landscapes with some architectural elements included in the scene.
I work to exceed my client's expectations. I can make their visions a reality. I can ship canvas murals anywhere. Visit my website www.artisticbrushworks.com for more examples of my artwork.
"I have had a passion for creating art since an early age and so it is an integral part of who I am today. I worked in NYC as a commercial illustrator for seventeen years. I mainly created artwork in many styles for various clients in the giftware industry -- produced many giftbags with holiday themes.
My creativity extended to the space around me after buying my first home. Becoming a muralist and faux finisher was a natural progression from that inherent need to beautify the space around me. I derive great satisfaction from making my clients happy with their environment as well. It is my purpose in life."
Carol moved from New Jersey to Florida four years ago. She lives with her husband, son,daughter and two dogs.
