CAROL EVERHART ROPER
...Photography as a Paintbrush...
A professional photographer and artist since 1975, Carol Everhart Roper is most drawn to our natural environment, and has captured images from all across North America, the Caribbean and England. In addition to straight photography, Carol’s work uses complimentary images and blends them to create a world of whispers; tactile, emotional and provocative, making the photograph itself work as a tool - as paint and brush - to reveal the world inside her.

"My paintings are expressive responses to people, objects, memories and life. Through the use of vibrant color, textures, line and movement, representational as well as abstract elements, emerge. The paintings are both purposeful and random stemming from moments of freedom with materials used, as well as instinctual and cognitive choices."
