Carol Balick graduated from Syracuse University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. For 27 years, she was the owner of a gallery in Wilmington which featured folk art and tribal from Asia, Africa, and the Americas as well the work of contemporary American craftspeople. She closed her gallery to devote more time to painting. A plein-air painter, she loves the waterways and farmlands of Delaware and the immense landscapes of the southwest, but paints where ever she travels
"I'm always challenged by how to communicate the vastness of the landscape within my small format and by how to express what is happening - the feeling of wind or unrelenting sun, stillness or the movement of a storm brewing. You take your chances working out of doors. Everything can change in a moment, but I find that uncertainty and the unexpected very exciting."
