Oil Painting: Classical Landscapes, Classical Portraits, Flowers, Animals, Surrealism, Visionary Art, Fantast Art

For her entire life Carina has lived and breathed all things painting. When she was 6 she received her first oil paints and has dedicated every fiber in her being to excelling at this medium. In 2012 she received an MFA from the highly acclaimed visual arts college SFAI in San Francisco. she has mostly focused on building a body of work entitled "Labyrinth of Infinite Doorways" which you can view at www.carinaearl.com; However, She is versed in classical landscapes, portraits, plants and nature as well as modern styles such as cubism, abstract, fantasy, and surrealism. Carina guides students to hone their skills in technique and process, to find their own unique voices as artists, and to become proficient in analyzing and speaking about art. She has the added dimension of a Life Coaching certification which enables her to take the instruction to a deeper level and provide compassionate critiques that facillitate growth and a person as well as an artist. There is no line between art and life. Everytime you grow as an artist you grow as a person. Every new way of seeing your art is a new way of seeing life.

Within every human being lies a creator. I truly beleive that everyone is an artist, and to me it is an incredible honor and joy to assist the unfolding of that in whatever form the student desires. Art is magic in its purest form. When we make art we initiate a process of transformation and manifestation whether we are painting a dream, or painting a sunrise.
