Carol Anne Slater is generating some waves of her own in the art world, with a developing following and recently being shortlisted for a national art competition having previously won multiple awards including from the V&A.  She is a self taught artist, whose worked is expressed through a distinctly contemporary style. She often immerses herself in the landscapes and wild seas that she is so fascinated by, painting en plein air. Carol Anne’s background in nursing the vulnerable and sick is quite the contrast to her career as a painter, however she believes there is a connection between human frailty and art, as they each have a sense transiency and fleetingness.
