Carolyn McManus

"I am a traditional self-taught artist living just outside of Louisville, in Goshen, and enjoy creating mixed media pieces that are whimsical, weird, and sometimes a little spooky. Each piece of artwork I make contains a combination of alcohol markers, watercolor, colored pencils, pastels, and gouache. I  love using a variety of materials to achieve the effects I am looking for, and that makes each new work into an adventure for me. My art is heavily inspired by my favorite children’s book illustrators, nature, folklore, and nostalgia."
