I am an abstract painter. Simply said, I paint what i feel not what I see. It needs to be raw, never before seen, and completely original in thought. When looking at something for the very first time, as is the case with abstract art, we get to add body to our cognitive, visual and emotional collection. “Abstract creates an experience never before seen and never to be seen the same again.”

Biography
Carlisle has lived in Utah, Arizona and New York. She studied art at the University of Utah and Parson’s School of Design. She takes enormous pleasure in traveling, being able to take personal part in other peoples lives and their cultures, spend time in as many museums as possible and to simply absorb as much as she can that is out there… increasing her appreciation and passion for all of art.

I hope to convey a personal connection within the spaces through which we travel, which are often more important and interesting than the destinations. The human condition and the places we dwell are fascinating to me. My hope is to translate that feeling and let it drive me to create my current works.

We move so fast. I hope to evoke a lasting memory of the places we move through.
