Carolynn Jones

My preferred medium is oil on canvas using an expressionist, alla prima method. I have studied art at the University of Alabama, Samford University, University of Alabama at Birmingham, and George Peabody College/Vanderbilt University, ultimately receiving a degree in art in 1978. I taught art for several years and later expanded my education to include nursing, epidemiology and clinical translational research careers. As a life-long learner, my art has been highly influenced by other painters, specifically abstract expressionism by Professor Alvin Sella, and impressionist abstract oil painting influenced by Sergei Bongart students: Guido Frick and Joann Williams Walker. I reside in Irondale, Alabama.
