My name is Lorelle Carr, I am a full-time artist, a painter. Omaha, Nebraska became my home in 2001, I fell in love with the community. I paint in many different mediums, acrylics is the phase I am experiencing now. My paintings vary from large to small scale and I usually work in series. My art is bold, colorful and vivid. In the past few years I have added “project painting” to my list, which has come from a love of speed painting, also known as daily paintings. With these projects the paintings are much smaller and I involve the public. I ask for them to email photos of the subject that has been chosen for the project. When the project begins, I pull a photo from a hat and post on my blog and on social media. I like to post the photo in the morning, who sent it in, where their from and a brief story. In the evening I post the completed painting. Thus far, I have completed six projects, the beginning, “90 Birds in 90 Days”, recently finishing up with Preferred Pets, 30 days of pets. My next and largest project is the 50 States Project. I am traveling in my converted shuttle bus to each state in the United States. I will render a painting of the state bird, state flower and a mailbox for each painting. If you would like to follow this project and support me on this journey you can on, Patreon.com/LorelleCarr Thanks to those who have helped me to add color to the world.
