What is the most interesting thing you have painted/sculpted and why?
Carole Belliveau: I started my art life sculpting a collection of realistic collectable artist dolls in a variety of mediums. After twenty five years of a successful business in doll and toy design I went back to school for my fine art degree in painting
How did you develop your unique style?
Carole Belliveau: I originally painted with brushes for both plein air landscape and figures but when I moved to Santa Fe the high desert landscape was different from anything I had ever experienced. Â I picked up a palette knife and squeegees for the first time and now use those exclusively for landscapes and for embellishing figures.
