Caroline Shotton Biography
Caroline Shotton grew up on the outskirts of London within easy reach of galleries and open countryside, both of which were a source of immense inspiration to her. Her early influences came from the old masters and so she was fascinated by their realism, making her strive for perfection throughout her education. She studied at Central Saint Martins opening her eyes to new ideas and techniques, captivated both by surrealism and impressionism her work now combines elements from these eras.
Her inspiration can be diverse and can come from a scrap of paper saved from a furnishing magazine or the look of a cow in a field. She keeps busy sourcing images, taking photographs and scribbling down ideas in order to use at any time in the future.
