Caroline A.
Doucette is a signature member of the New England Watercolor Society and
Pennsylvania Watercolor Society.
She has been published in both the Summer 1996 issue and the Spring
2000 issue of the “Watercolor” magazine.
Her painting “To Life” appears in the book “Splash 5: The Glory of Color.” Her paintings are in a number of
collections including the Taube Museum of Art, Minot, ND and the Worcester
Polytechnic Institute, Worcester, MA.
Her mother is an artist as was her grandmother. As play, her mother taught her perspective
drawing when she was 4 years old. With
her first camera at 11 years old, her father, who had once worked with the
photography department in the US Air Force, taught her the fundamentals of
composition. In December of 1989, her
husband encouraged her to paint full time, suggesting she use watercolors and
later to specialize in florals.
Following his intuition and guidance, she began to win awards and
recognition.
In November 2000, her husband’s business relocated moving them from Nashua,
New Hampshire to Rugby, North Dakota.
Her work can be viewed on the Internet at www.carolinedoucette.com. |

I really like to
paint flowers. They’re fun and they can be played with. Originally, I found flowers so simple but
then I found I could play with the wonderful colors and shadows and get right
down into them like some magical fairy.
I like to use a simple palette of red, blue, yellow, cool, and warm so
I can get nice rich, brilliant, vivid, clean colors that will sit on my hot
press paper in such a delightful way.
I like to make the leaf curl away and the petal look soft and
fuzzy. It is how the peach has weight
and the autumn leaf crunches under foot.
The more I painted flowers, and gardened, the more I viewed myself,
and flowers, as survivors, with a quiet strength, that’s bold and has a
beauty despite any flaws. In the
flower is the continuous circle of life with the dreams of tomorrow. |
