News
Carol has just been accepted as an artist-in-residence into the prestigious l'Atelier d'Artiste de Grande Vigne in Dinan, France, for the month of April. The French artist Yvonne Jean-Haffen started the program before her death at the age of 98 in 1993. The purpose of the l'Atelier is to perpetuate a tradition that goes back to the end of the 18th Century whereby artists from around the world are invited for a one-month stay. When accepted, the artist receives the use of a studio and housing in Dinan for one month in exchange for a painting, created while in Dinan and chosen by a selection committee. The painting is then put into the permanent collection of La Grande Vigne and will be used in exhibitions by the association.
