“When you walk out your door and really look around you, the world is one miraculous Creation of light, texture and color. I see beauty everywhere, in the largest of subjects as in the sky, to the smallest of flowers hiding in the grass beneath my feet. (If you have ever traveled with me you know I take a million photos!) My art is my attempt to capture that beauty that is found daily, and my hope is to encourage others to take time and have eyes to see the world around them. “ Carol Arnold has been painting for over 20 years. Her artwork is ever evolving and captures her love for the outdoors and God’s Creations.
