About Carrie
I was born in Cheshire, England, but travelled extensively as a child. Over the years I have embraced art through a variety of spectrums including music, writing, design, photography and painting. After completing a course in Graphic Design I became a founding partner in a successful design consultancy producing corporate, promotional, publishing and illustrative material. After 10 years burning the midnight oil I set up ‘Attic Card Company’ creating and producing greeting cards for the giftware industry where I illustrated in excess of 120 images sold to well known high street outlets nationally and internationally. Many of the images were also used for worldwide licensing.
In the spring of 2007 after completing a Diploma in Journalism, I returned to painting full time.
When I’m not painting I love to run. I live in Cambridge with my husband and two sons.
