In Our Hands
Caroline Ireland’s paintings abound in colour and pattern, featuring the artist’s hands as elements to highlight human interconnection with nature
Inspired by folk-art, the optimistic paintings in Caroline Ireland’s up-coming exhibition abound in colour and pattern and feature the shapes of the artist’s own hands as elements of imagined landscapes, highlighting human interconnection with the natural world and the premise that the future is in our hands to change for the better.
Caroline Ireland has lived and worked as an artist in West Dorset for over twenty years. She is largely self-taught. Her brightly coloured and uplifting artwork follows threads of inspiration wherever they lead. She works mainly in watercolour and soft pastels, often in combination as in the present series, creating images fizzing with colour and vibrancy.
