" Done Fishin' "


Born in Seattle, Carmine began studying
art in the early 70’s at a small Washington college. Her interest in
printmaking began with linoleum block, evolved to letterpress and eventually
developed into a commercial printing plant where she and her then-husband
published community newspapers in western Montana. The demands of the
business quickly replaced the opportunity for her graphic art and creativity
with the “commercial arts” of hiring, training, and accounting for their
growing publishing enterprise.
Having sold the business in 2000, Carmine (which means "sparkling red"; a
pigment used in paint,) reentered college to pursue her passion for art, and
did some study in Italy. Her life experience has enriched her appreciation
of art, and Carmine enjoys expressing this in portraiture and watercolor
landscape.
Her studio is on the west shore of Flathead Lake with a view of the water
and the Mission Mountains, which reminds Carmine of her childhood home.
