Caroline starts her working day drawing inspiration from in her local Cotswolds countryside to take back to her home studio and turn into beautiful watercolour paintings. Known for 'the use of movement' in her art, Caroline's style is a mix between traditiional fine art with splashes of modern Abstract art with her use of colour and composition. Her Bees and feathers being popular examples of this.

Having painted from the age of 3 years old when her parents gave her an Artist board, Caroline has always been drawn back to art. So after a 20 year Marketing career, she decided to pursue her passion full time.

 

Caroline studied History of Art in Aix-en-Provence where her passion for Art grew even more. She was heavily influenced by local French artists alongside great impressionists like Cezanne, who was born and died in Aix, as well as Van Gogh and Gaugin who both spent time in the neighbouring town of Arles.

 

Her Art journey hasnt been straight forward. Painting was never seen as a stable full time career, so she created one in Marketing. Art became her saviour after illness truck and she was forced to leave her job. She was diagnosed with M.E and turned to painting her natural environment as an activity she could do in her own time as well a pure tonic. People began to commission her and she sold a few of her oils on canvas and greetings cards in shops. Once 'recovered', she continued a duo career in marketing alongside selling her art. When she became a mother aged 42 she decided to pursue art as full time career to fit around family life.

​

Art is in her blood. Her Aunt defied her parents wishes by choosing Art as a career and became a very successful painter, ceramist and teacher of both, whilst simultaneously raising her 3 children, one of whom is a portrait artist. Her Great Aunt was also an artist and only recently, Caroline discovered one of pencil drawings she did aged 13y and of dogs, no less, one of Caroline's favourite subjects to paint.

 

Now a full time artist and mother, Caroline paints series of her natural environment evoking movement and colour. Explore her website for more details of how she works and follow on Instagram @carolinelangstudio to keep up to date and connect with her directly or Email: carolinelangstudio@gmail.com.
