About
Caroline grew up in Wellington, New Zealand, where she first developed her love of storytelling through art. At age 16 she moved with her family to the USA to live. Over a 4 year period she experienced a vast amount of the North American landscape - painting and sketching her way across Canada, Alaska, Montana, Oregon, California, Arizona, New York and Utah.
After completing her first year of study at the University of the Parks Southern Utah University, Caroline returned to New Zealand. Having obtained a Bachelor of Fine Arts with honours from Massey University, she is currently studying in the Master of Fine Arts programme.
Caroline is inspired and influenced by wondering and wandering, documenting her exploration and journey here in Aotearoa.
