Linda Marie Carroll ARTIST’S STATEMENT

 

Linda paints in oil and watercolors.  Her medium of choice depends on mood and subject.  The transparency and intense color saturation of her watercolors show how oil painting has influenced her painting style.  Selecting which medium can be a practical decision and at others times, more of whim. 

The paintings show a strong interest in color manipulation, sometimes with complimentary colors playing off each other to get a particular effect and others show a treatment of values of light and dark.

Linda’s interest in indigenous people, spirituality and the foggy essence of emotions exhibits itself in her subject matter. Her paintings endeavor to bridge the world in which she lives with the world she finds so interesting. 

Inspiration for Linda’s work it is most evident from human emotion.  Harmony and Chaos work together to bring that which inspires.  She likes to imagine that her paintings are tangible evidence of emotions, long after they have faded and been forgotten. 

 

 

 

Whatever medium, creating art is a public way to express private emotions. Although this expression can be a risk as well as a thrill, Linda feels most complete while painting.
