Born in Texas and raised in South America, Caroline Ashton has also traveled the full spectrum in the world of fine arts, exploring watercolors, acrylics, oils, printmaking, and ceramics. Fascinated by human nature, she weaves faceless figures and bodies together in dynamic movements, costumes, and settings, expertly using colors and images to shape her artistry. She begins by blocking in her shapes with thin washes, then layers transparent or opaque pigments for luminosity and a kaleidoscope of rich colors. "My paintings control the uncontrollable, and I am always surprised by the outcome," says Ashton.
