Artist Statement for Carol Santora
|
|
|
I love animals, I always have... and painting them is my passion.
My body of work includes contemporary expressionistic wildlife and animals. Each painting begins with a foundation of thorough research that includes site visits to wildlife areas and parks, farms, zoos and rescues all over the United States.
Whether it’s an intimate close-up of a big cat or a commission of a cherished family pet, my goal is to simplify my subject to capture its essence and unique personality.
At home with several media, my favorite is soft pastel because of the clean, intense color.
Using vibrant color conveys a sense of vitality in my work and
provides the means of expressing my own personal vision.
I donate a portion of the sales from pet portraits of AWS-adopted dogs to the AWS.
