Carola is a multi-disciplinary contemporary artist whose work is inspired by landscape and its histories. She makes drawings directly from her surroundings and then interweaves elements from myth, memory, poetry and the past. Her training as a sculptor influences her 2D work where she uses line as a scaffolding for composition before developing colour. This cheerful exhibition of paintings in oil, watercolour and egg tempera brings together work from several recent projects in Olhão, Cornwall and the Isle of Man as she looks forward to many more years working in the Algarve. www.carolacolley.net
