Carolee Clark worked in watercolors for years, yet even after winning awards in the medium, she suddenly and unexpectedly switched to acrylic. She was nervous her body of work would shift and become unrecognizable.
“I decided that I would experiment with a completely foreign subject matter, non-objective abstract, when I made the transition. I had a showing of these paintings in a local hospital and some time afterward, a woman came up to me and said she had known immediately that they were my paintings!”

Clark was astonished. “I asked how she knew, and she said that my color choices are the same and it just felt like my work.” Clark is now known for her vibrant use of color.
