ARTIST STATEMENT
I am an impressionistic temperature oil painter. A beautiful use of color and tonal interplay and great abstract shapes and brushwork are important to my work. I want viewers to experience feelings of happiness and to be left with an appreciation of the beauty and awe that surrounds us every day on this earth. I expect my work to be appealing, sensitive and to have an inherent gorgeousness about it, perhaps even a touch of spice!

Caroline Goldsmith was born in the city of Sydney Australia 1964. Goldsmith was busy creating 
since the age of three. Teachers reported on her love of color and line. At 18 she started her professional 
art career with an art apprenticeship with Miadna publishing company.

Goldsmith studied fine art at East Sydney Technical College, now called The National Art School, 
at night while working as a finished artist during the day. Completing two years of drawing and 
color and design with honors.

and enjoyed recognition when she was recommended to apply for membership to the Royal Art Society.

Subsequently, Goldsmith displayed and sold her work at Lavender Bay Art Gallery North Sydney 
as an exhibiting member of the Royal Art Society.

Goldsmiths art world was uprooted when she moved to USA in May 2000 with her husband and daughter. 

Another decade later Goldsmith joined the Monticello Arts Council and re-emerged with a successful 
solo exhibition of landscapes at Red House Gallery, Monticello Illinois.
She rallied with other plein air painters and found a community of artists in her own hometown. 
She has encouraged plein air practices and gatherings of professional artists to support each other 
and grow as artists together through her local arts council. 
An important part of Caroline's development as a painter has been her continuing education, studying 
and applying the teachings of master plein air and studio oil painters. 

She is committed to painting full-time.Goldsmith is an impressionistic landscape oil painter. 
She has a beautiful use of color and tonal interplay with great abstract shapes and brushwork.

 that surrounds us every day on this earth. 
Caroline says she expects her work to be appealing, sensitive and have an inherent gorgeousness about it. 
Each painting she is mindful that keeping unresolved passages is important to keep the viewer in conversation 
with the painting as the artist is in conversation with nature as she paints.
