Artist of the Month - Caroline Ireland
Posted 2 May 2025
Our Artist of the Month for May is Dorset Visual Arts’ Member, Caroline Ireland.
Caroline is primarily a maker of visionary, and imaginative images, using the vehicle of colour to evoke other worlds, thoughts and emotions - to engage the eye in seeing perhaps in a different way, and to make an emotional connection with the viewer .
Caroline says, ‘I’m reluctant to say too much about individual pieces of my artwork. I don’t want to impose my ideas and motivations on the viewer because I like people to trust their own responses and bring their own experiences and stories to the work. I always hope that my work might be a stepping stone to seeing the magical in the world all around us; to bring joy, inspiration and imagination, using vibrant colour to uplift and engage emotions.’
