Where did my journey begin?

Later than some......
It was arriving in Spain, a country of such vibrancy and colour. To then travel through Europe and view and be inspired by such masters as Picasso, Monet, Matisse and Miro. When I came back to Australia I began painting, first in water colours and more recently in acrylics and oils.

In 2007 I went to Antibes and had lessons from a marvelous teacher who told me to keep painting. He said my colours were French.

In 2008 I again traveled to France again to have further lessons.
Also in 2008 I enrolled into a single Painting elective at Melbourne's RMIT University. I am pleased to say I passed the subject and was fortunate to receive a High Distinction. This support , learning, experience and encouragement I received at RMIT is something I am very grateful for.

In 2009 I had my first 'mini' exhibitions in some commercial establishments around Melbourne.
A great commercial learning curve!

Currently in 2010 I am working on around 4 paintings a week.

In 2010 my aim is to have more small showings for my work and in 2010, my first major exhibition in 2011.
I hope you will look at my paintings and see something that fires your imagination

Sincerely, Carol Hill
