À propos

Carol Coates was born in Michigan where her content driven work found many issues of concern. She earned her Masters in Fine Art at the University of Michigan. Her lifelong graduate study continued in drawing, painting, photography, metal fabrication, and ceramics. She created and exhibited her work in juried and solo shows during her years as an educator. She was the recipient of two major Creative Artist Grants from Michigan’s State Art Council. This led to the creation of several 7’x7’ canvas/mesh overlay pieces. She created grand format corporate and public Fine Art commissioned installations. She won many awards for her work. She studied, exhibited, and received awards abroad. She is representated in Denver, CO, in Los Angeles, CA, and in Naples, FL. She has created four major ongoing bodies of work. Her themes focus on human perception and choice via surreal, classical, minimal, and abstract imagery. She hopes that her work is both evocative and provocative and promotes wisdom.
