Carolyn Sheehan

Born in Queens, New York. Painter and printmaker, living and working in New York and France. My work is a diary of my existence, a way to deal with the psychological matrix of my surroundings and the people who inhabit them. Commencing with existing forms, my images are transformed through the interplay of materials, such as wood, copper, canvas, paper, wax and the process of manipulation, which are painting, stitching, carving, constructing and molding, as well as with the emotional traces that arise from those efforts, into a visual imprint of my inner voice.
