Renewal

This body of work has evolved over time and combines my three areas of art practice, drawing, painting and printmaking. It is a direct intuitive response to a landscape that I’m particularly familiar with. I grew up on a farm in northwestern NSW and that landscape continues to influence my work to this day.

The cyclical changes of the seasons and the ability of nature to recover from catastrophic events, though increasingly challenged, have long held a fascination and provided endless inspiration for my work.

Caroline is a Newcastle based artist with a strong connection to the Australian landscape. Drawing is the core of her practice alongside painting and printmaking.

The influence of having grown up in a mixed farming enterprise on The Liverpool Plains in NSW in a family of creatives has always been a constant source of inspiration and driving force in all aspects of her work.  

“I work intuitively and spontaneously whether it be en plein air or in my studio.  For me, there is a certain amount of freneticism required in the way I work in order to capture and describe elements with an uninhibited visceral quality I desire.”
