Born in Kent, but lived in Cornwall since the age of seven. While bringing up her daughter and earning her living as an artist's model, barmaid, and later running a business with her partner, she studied art as a part-time student at the Penzance School of Art. Her main interests are the human figure, landscape and natural forms and patterns.  

 

Carol is self-taught as a printmaker and specialises in richly coloured multi-block lino-cut prints, and has recently started etching.
