Garden Sketchbook
Growing things to draw is another focus for Caro's sketchbook work and photography. Artichokes, broccoli, fennel, squash, sunflowers, nasturtiums, corn: crisp architectural forms, jewel colours, geometric leaf patterns and faded stalks. Caro uses a wide range of media - ink,watercolour, gouache, acrylic, neocolour crayon, fineliner and pencil - to create her drawings.
