Christina Carroll
We are proud to host the works of Christina Carroll in our Director's Gallery this June. Starting off her creative journey painting with watercolor and charcoal sketches as a child, Carroll has always enjoyed being amongst artists, taking classes, and trying different techniques and mediums. She has most recently been absorbing pastel painting with yummy soft pastels and varieties of sanded and plain paper. This practice has turned into a passion for her, painting with pastels and the feel of pastel color gliding across the paper to build up colors in skin and hair, greens and purples in a forest scene, and lots of blues in the sky and water in an evening scene. Each new surface makes it event more exciting and challenging. Carroll is also a member of TRAA in New Bern, the Piedmont Pastel Society, and the Appalachian Pastel Society.
A reception for this exhibition will be hosted on Bank of the Arts on Friday, June 13th from 5 - 8 pm. |
