Carol Gildar is an accomplished painter in watercolor. She is enthused by the vibrancy of the watercolor medium and the transparency of color on paper. Her watercolor paintings convey a sense of color and light and capture the essence of her subjects in a style of impressionist realism. Carol also paints oriental watercolor in the sumi-e style on rice paper in floral and insect motif. Carol enjoys working in detail and her still lifes reflect character, texture, color and mass. Her travels to France, Greece, Italy, New Zealand and throughout the United States provide a range of work that has been represented in shows at the Pen and Brush Club (New York), Chicago, Wisconsin and California. She has won many awards for her work and has been honored for one of her watercolors from the National Academy of Design Museum in New York City.

    Carol is a graduate of Moore College of Art in Philadelphia. She is a member of the Midwest Watercolor Society, Chicago Artists Coalition, Deer Path Gallery, National Sumi-e Society, and Suburban Fine Arts Center and participates in shows throughout the year. She is a native of Pennsylvania, lived in New York City for many years before relocating to the north shore of Chicago area.
