Creations by Carrie D

My love for art has existed for as long as I can remember. As a child, I remember being attracted to any creative process. I have had no formal training just good old fashioned trial and error.
I am drawn to black and white for its simplicity and for its strong contrast. I love creating pattern filled creatures and quirky misfit characters who look like they have a story to tell. I get my ideas from nature and children. The characters I develop are usually spontaneous and I draw on the moment when the idea presents itself. You never know where those crazy but useful ideas may come from.
I love drawing an animal and taking it into my creative world and putting a new spin on it. My work is a great source of joy for me and I love that I get to create and share. There is such a positivity to making something from my mind and with my hands that I can’t get enough of.
