Carol Burin

I’m a local Chicago artist, born and raised in the metropolitan area, currently living on Chicago’s Northshore. I’ve painted since the early 1990’s and been mentored by many Chicago-area artists. I’m a member of the North Shore Art League, the Evanston Art Center, Evanston-Made, The Art Center of Highland Park, and the Chicago Alliance of Visual Artists.

Painting represents a language that helps me express myself to the world. I work primarily in oil on canvas but continue to experiment with other media to channel my expanding vision and creativity. My passion is painting but my creativity has evolved into other endeavors including jewelry making.

My artwork is a response to a wide range of subject matter, from still lifes and landscapes to personal abstract narratives. I believe that great paintings tell a story, allowing the viewer to step inside a vision they can begin identifying as their own. I express mood and atmosphere through my use of color and my expressive brushstrokes. My work has been featured in local art association publications and is found in private collections.
