CarolMann 71 | Washington, N.C. | Co-Owner Of The Lemonade Art Gallery And A Watercolorist
Tell us about your family: I am married to Bill and have three adult daughters. If you could have dinner with any famous artist dead or alive, who would it be and why? Grandma Moses! Since I am a late-comer to art, I’d love to chat with her. Signature scent: Shalimar…..I’ve worn that since I was 16 years old. My closet smells like Shalimar. Your favorite painting, statue, or art instillation: I don’t have a favorite; however, I prefer realistic art of any medium. Your favorite color and why: My favorite color is purple, in all different shades. No reason, just love it! Your favorite work tool and why: My favorite work tool? I guess it would have to be my cat’s-tongue brush because it comes to a lovely point and can be very versatile. However, there are some really interesting tools that are used in watercolor, like sponges, salt and masking fluid. And I couldn’t paint without them. Describe the perfect day: A perfect day for me is waking up naturally without an alarm clock, dragging my work tools out on the deck and setting up to paint all day! Dinner would be out with my hubby, and then a hot bath and the three of us (Archie, our doodle, is the third party) snuggling on the couch watching a movie.
