I paint my internal world, my experience, as much as I paint the external world. My paintings reveal the vibrant color I feel as I connect to what I see.
“Carole Jolly’s art has inspired me for years. Her paintings have a visceral expression of texture, color, and creative design which touches my heart and invites a deeper view.”
“There’s a natural tendency and draw towards honesty in Carole’s work, that doesn’t waiver, in the simplest of marks, to the sophisticated gathering of gestures, all in a thought, or often better still, when she’s just painting. And it all holds together after scrutiny and vulnerability have had their say.”
“I consider Carole to be an unusually gifted artist. Her use of colors and scenes is truly magical. Her paintings are powerful and stimulating. At the same time they warm my heart and touch me deeply.”
“I have always seen so much more to Carole Jolly’s artwork than just a surface view. Every one of her works reminds me of the deep and eternal beauty in life, while not negating gloom, storm, bitterness, or shadow. ”
