About the Artist
Carolyn M. Abrams is a mixed media artist originally from upstate New York and now residing in Lenox, Massachusetts—both regions renowned for their extraordinary light and breathtaking sunsets. The luminous skies and atmospheric landscapes of these areas profoundly influence her work, infusing it with radiance and serenity.
Her art is an exploration of wisdom discovered through the creative process. Guided by intuition, Carolyn navigates both the spiritual and physical worlds, allowing each piece to unfold organically. She embraces experimentation, continually incorporating new techniques and distinctive materials to more fully express her passion for creativity.
Inspired by the natural beauty that surrounds her—and often stirred by the resonance of a lyric or poem—Carolyn creates ethereal, peaceful, nature-inspired paintings. Her work blends elements of impressionism and abstraction, where color, texture, and light come together in harmonious balance.
Feelings of hope and tranquility permeate her atmospheric compositions. This consistent emotional thread has drawn a devoted following of collectors who are captivated by the sense of harmony in her work and who continue to follow her artistic journey.
