Carolyn has only recently emerged in the art world as a mature artist in the last five years. She has exhibited often and recently has been accepted into the Hidden Faces of the Archibald (aka Victorian Salon des Refuses) for the third year with her self portrait 'Me, Myself, Eye'. This year she has painted children's author Morris Gleitzman for her entry in the Archibald Prize. In 2008 she won the Six Degrees Art Prize and founded the Gippsland Contemporary Art Group in 2009.
