About Carolyn’s Heritage Farm Animals Collection

Starting in March 2009, between animation gigs, Carolyn began to paint farm animals. She received such personal satisfaction from rediscovering watercolor after a 20 year hiatus, she became motivated to paint every rare breed farm animal she could find. “Having a subject you are passionate about is paramount.”

As an avid traveler, she enjoys the process of visiting farms to take photos to create her compositions or use owner photos to capture the essence of each breed. Her hope is to communicate her impression of the beauty and personality of each animal — that her paintings will bring attention to these rare breeds and increase appreciation for our agricultural heritage.
