Deb McCarroll’s paintings are meditations on the relationship between humanity and our fragile planet. Employing elemental materials such as rain, snow, and earth, her work examines the ephemeral nature of civilizations against the erosive yet enduring quality of nature.
Through a harmonious blend of rounded and linear forms, McCarroll embraces chance in the creative process. Each work straddles organic and geometric motifs, using experimental techniques that combine active gestural brushwork with deliberate architectural structure—a synthesis of spontaneity and intention.
