Teal I See You Again by Steve Carroll

From the time I saw my mother and mentor, Patricia Marie Carroll (nee Bearns), hang a painting of a beautiful grotto on our neighbour's wall I knew I would follow in her footsteps. Her composition provided me with an opportunity to feel I was actually gazing out of the grotto watching the Atlantic ocean throw its weight up onto the rocks. It was mesmerizing and left me feeling like I could feel the spray of the breaking waves hitting my face.

Her advice to me came in many different hues and tones but they always painted the same composition... 'dig deep and challenge yourself to always improve and embrace learning opportunities during your art journey.' I have lived by these words my entire life. She taught me that wherever my art is displayed it will always represent a part of me. I believe it represents a part of my her as well.
