ABOUT CARO
A late-comer to the professional art world, I have been catching up since studying Fine Art; developing ways of finding my own identity as a maker. My artistic energy is fed by a love of the natural world, a compulsion to collect odd artefacts, and an occasional need to comment on current events. I use different media - often a mixture - and I particularly enjoy assemblage, print making and collage.
