{KhaoStasis} I utilize chaos in my artworks to create harmony, a reminder to find beauty in life. I am specifically curious about the visual connections found in nature, atomic structures, and celestial forms. These connections are inspired by physics, nature, and memory. I enjoy painting large and have many murals in Eugene and the surrounding areas.

I use photography and video to tell stories that inspire, motivate, inform, question, and celebrate the diverse experiences of humans and animals on the planet. I have worked with non-profits, individuals and businesses and shot in locations all around the world including Japan, Italy, Zimbabwe, Cameroon and of course, the Pacific Northwest.

I am a watercolor artist and live in Eugene with my husband and two cats. I am easily moved by people and situations around me. I use watercolor to express my emotions by creating intentionally, loose portraits that represent strength, courage, and resiliency. Momentum comes from each piece created. My goal is to do something artistic as often as possible, keep the energy and ideas going, and learn, share, and grow with my art community.

I paint from my heart to capture the soul of the world we feel around us. I have come to understand that the profound beauty of this world is but momentary and fleeting. We all cherish these vignettes of special moments that seem to define the very essence of who we are and are the treasures of our heart throughout our life. I strive with my work to offer a glimpse of this beauty. Follow Carolyn Bloom on Instagram @carolyn.bloom and Facebook.

Thanks to ABAE for putting this together. I’ve been living and working in Eugene for many years. Have a nice old farmhouse in the South Hills with a cozy studio upstairs. Lately I’m working with pastels, ink, and watercolor. I work mostly for myself—less complicated that way. As the great, but obscure composer Charles Ives said, “I feel comfortable knowing that my work will not be inflicted on other people.”
