Welcome to Carole Rodrigue's Fine Art Website! "Painting and creating art has always been part of my nature. When I see the natural beauty in the world around me, I feel the need to capture it. It is my deepest hope that when someone looks at one of my paintings, a mood is created." |
Timeless 16 x 20 original acrylic Wasn't Me! 16 x 20 original acrylic Carole Rodrigue is an award winning artist from Sudbury, Ontario, specializing in acrylic works depicting various subject matter, from horses, to landscapes, to still lifes and other animals. Art has been a lifelong passion that she has only started to publicly show in the past few years. Like many artists, Carole knew from an early age that art was something which consumed her and could not be ignored. When she was younger, her mother and aunt used to paint and she'd been lucky enough to have the necessary materials around her home to indulge her creativity. This creativity was usually expressed through drawing and at about the age of fifteen, she began painting with oils. During adulthood, the daily strains of work and home life had limited her artistic endeavours, but in the last few years, she has renewed her passion for creating and has been painting prolifically since. Carole now prefers acrylic paint, which is versatile, long lasting, and less toxic than oils. Carole creates original art which is enjoyed by several clients in Canada and the United States. Passionate about her art, Carole's creations are painted to reflect mood and interesting lighting. Although horses are always one of her favorite subjects to paint, anything that reflects interesting light, texture, and mood is fair game to paint. Newly created works can be viewed on her blog which is regularly updated. Her blog also contains recent announcements and interesting musings. Carole is a member of the Equine Art Guild and is also proud to have been selected to be on the creation team for Le Cadeau du Cheval (The Gift Horse), a larger than life, 20 foot high equine themed mural project from Mural Mosaic, which was unveiled at the Masters in Spruce Meadows, Alberta, September 3rd, 2008. The mural has since been on tour and exposed at the American Quarter Congress, the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas, and will be at the Calgary Stampede in 2009. The mural has also been featured in various publications and even appeared on Cowboy Country T.V. . Carole's panel is also in a book featuring the mural, coming out soon and will be available for sale through this website. Feel free to contact Carole for information about her art or purchasing.
