Carrie’s style of painting is in the realm of contemporary realism. She focuses on one subject matter and strives to bring out the details in the subject while evoking a certain emotion. When painting a portrait, human or animal, Carrie’s goal is to bring out the true personality and character of that individual or pet.
She works in oils using a monochromatic palette to lay down her initial forms. She then applies layers of color on top of this underpainting in order to mold the painting into its final form. This technique gives her paintings a sense of warmth, depth and color harmony.
Carrie is the mother of three aspiring hockey players (she does live in Canada after all!) and lives with her husband Byron in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
