Carolyn Harrington

Carolyn Harrington’s diverse works in acrylics are the manifestations of rich and varied life experiences starting in the NSW Riverina rice belt, on to African village life and then to North European cultures.

Carolyn commenced her formal training at RMIT, gaining a Diploma in Arts with a specialisation in fashion. She continued to develop her art while travelling in Africa and Europe and eventually living in London before returning to Victoria in 2002 where she now lives on the Mornington Peninsula.

It is clear to all Carolyn’s clients that she remains strongly influenced by her travels, her keen interest in life drawing and fashion, and her quirky take on rural life.

She has now successfully exhibited around the Peninsula as well as at shows across Victoria and NSW.
