About the artist
Third eye perspective |
|
Carole Harrison was born in Denver, Colorado and lived most of her youth in Frisco and Glenwood Springs,Colorado in the beautiful Rocky Mountains. She has always been facinated with the expression of art. Her first memorable experience of art occured when she was only seven years old, as she observed her older sister drawing. Her sister asked her to participate as a model and so she posed as her sister drew her portrait. And from that moment on, she knew that she wanted to be an artist. As a child she played in the forest behind the Blue Spruce Inn, a restaurant her family owned in Frisco, she found herself surrounded by a mystical world filled with wonder and mystery.
This is that quality that comes through her art; "What great adventure is in there, just waiting for me to enter? If I observe closely, I might just get a glimpse of it." Her art has evolved over the years, as she has experienced creating her art in many different mediums and subjects,but the same feeling of curosity, peace and silence are a universal thread that connect all of her works. She paints the same way she observes, with the third eye perspective, allowing the viewer to participate and be part of the adventure within.
For Carole, color on the canvas expresses the light one can find, if one dares to look within! She has throughout her years sought out to learn of this truth, through the gifted words and works published by their authors. I BE NOW! This she has learned, is the eternal portrait, The perfect illusion.
