Carola Richards
"Babushka". Contemporary Abstract Expressionist Painting

circa 1990

About the Item

Early work was impressionistic and hard abstract. Carola later developed a more mature way of working in a colourful exploration of the subject. Colour was her main interest and she often went over a work again and again as colourful, surreal, whimsical and often bizarre forms appeared. She described the process as " frustrating, mysterious and exciting". Unframed mixed media on paper. Matted for protection
