Caroline Greb is a fine artist based in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Caroline (b. 1997) considers herself a traditional painter but loves to play with looseness, texture, and color. She paints primarily in watercolors and acrylics, but can’t help dabbling in collage and block prints. Caroline’s current body of work explores the ideas of the living word and the realness of God's presence and glory in the mundane. As a representational artist working mostly from life, her subjects and inspiration come from pure observation of the ordinary world, fueled by a need to slow down and look at things for what they truly are. Each painting, whether a landscape or still life, is an act of wondering and truth-seeking marking moments in time of God's grace. Caroline’s hope is that her art may be a testament to the redemptive beauty found in places of pain, to the mercies of the seemingly mundane, and to present an opportunity to be honest in our wrestling and yearning after Christ and, in that, find faith. And sometimes she just loves letting paint be paint.
