Instructor- Carol Corbett

"I have always been drawn to strong, graphic images. I believe there is as much beauty in a dying rose as there is in an old pair of sneakers. Watercolor is my medium of choice, but I have been told that my paintings often look like acrylic. I believe that is because I love intense color and larger than life imagery. I also paint on alternate surfaces. Mounting watercolor paper on cradle board gives the painting a very different feel or painting on Aquabord and other DIY surfaces, all pushing the boundries of watercolor without losing what makes the paint so special. By focusing on close-ups and details, I aim to draw attention to the beauty and intricacy of the objects we often overlook in our daily lives."
