"Each scene or person I paint elicits a personal response and fires my imagination. I want to capture that moment and convey those thoughts and emotions to my viewer."Carole Hillsbery has been painting in transparent watercolors for over twenty-five years. She has studied with such notable artists as Robert E. Wood, Charles Reid, Diane Maxey and Ted Nuttall.
Carole describes herself a “shape maker” starting with large fresh washes of color and working toward smaller, more intense shapes and colors that define the subject. She is an impressionist in her approach to her work which has been described as "meticulously imprecise" as she thoughtfully and carefully builds shapes to represent her subject.
Carole is a member of the Arizona Watercolor Society, Transparent Watercolor Society of America and Arizona Artist Guild. She is a featured artist in the December 2006 American Artist magazine.
