OAL member, Carol Wilson’s interest in art started young…many evenings, she sat with her sisters around the dining room table and drew pictures. As an adult, she pursued a traditional career for women at the time, she obtained undergraduate degrees in Nursing and Psychology, and a master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling. During the years she worked as a nurse, she fulfilled her need to do visually creative things by renovating old houses. When she retired from her nursing position at Seattle Children’s Hospital several years ago, she pursued a long-standing desire to paint.

The beautiful Northwest provides an infinite variety of subjects. Carol is particularly fond of birds, poppies, and old buildings, but has taken on commissions as varied as giraffe wall murals and pet portraits. She has exhibited her work in local galleries, regional juried shows, and has sold her work to art-lovers around the country.
