Collection: Carol Dickerson
My intention is to create images that draw the viewer into a mysterious but somehow familiar world through the universal language of proportion, balance, and harmony. I create layered images of opaque and transparent acrylic paints. My process is similar to jazz improvization: each layer is a response to the color, line, rhythm, texture, and shapes of the previous layer. I may use crayons, charcoal, brushes, rollers, fingers, and stencils to develop the layers. In my current work, I am also exploring the use of mono print techniques, collage, and oil paints.
I left a career as a college librarian in 2012 to pursue painting full time. I have studied with a number of Colorado artists including Chris Alvarez, Lance Green, and Karen Roehl, and participated in workshops led by New Mexico artists Gwen Fox and Virginia Cobb. More recently, I have participated in online classes with Nancy Hillis, Nicholas Wilton, and Melinda Cootsona. My paintings have been shown in group shows at Cottonwood Center for the Arts, Modbo, The Manitou Art Center, Kreuser Gallery, and G44 Gallery in Colorado Springs, as well as D’art Gallery in Denver. In 2017, G44 Gallery and The Machine Shop hosted my first solo shows. In the last six years my work has been featured in eight solo shows, most recently at Surface Gallery in Colorado Springs and Medora Gallery in Canon City, Colorado.
