LOVE IS LOVE I Artwork

Carolina Garcia is a Miami-based artist working with Watercolors, Acrylics and Mixed Media on paper, wood and canvas. She spent her teenage years attending classes at local art studios in Lima - the city where she grew up - learning various mediums such as drawing, painting, sewing and sculpting and experimenting with different materials. After obtaining her Bachelor's degree in Mass Communication and Journalism, her artistic path took her from designing newspapers and editing magazines to designing clothing and later handmade jewelry. But it wasn’t until she turned 50 that she committed herself to a daily art practice and went back to her first love: painting. She takes inspiration from every day life experiences and the way they are processed by our mind in order to express - or suppress - our feelings, expectations and dreams. Her approach to abstract art is totally intuitive; she doesn’t have an idea of the final piece as she is creating it. She believes in using her intuition as a catalyst to materialize visions from the unconscious mind. Her paints are in private collections around the United States and in Lima, Peru. She also shares what she learned throughout the years - from countless teachers and from her own experience - by running creativity workshops to help others express their own uniqueness and feel the joy of art creation.
