Fine Artist · Painter · Designer
ARTIST STATEMENT
Shauna Carroll is a multidisciplinary fine artist and designer whose practice explores the intersection of art, nature and coastal culture. With an academic background in biological sciences, her perspective is informed by an enduring curiosity about the natural world, marine ecosystems and the intricate forms and relationships found within living environments.
Drawing inspiration from ocean environments, marine life, tropical landscapes and the organic movement of water, her work spans painting, illustration, large-scale murals and hand-painted surfboards. Working across traditional and contemporary mediums, Carroll approaches each project with an interest in color, movement, texture and the relationship between artwork and its surrounding environment. Her scientific background and longstanding connection to coastal living inform a practice that seeks to translate the complexity and beauty of the natural world into expressive visual forms. Her work has been exhibited in galleries, juried art festivals and environmental arts events, with commissioned projects and creative collaborations throughout New York and Florida.
