Biographical Information
As a working artist/muralist, my creative efforts have largely been shaped by a conviction that art should be more accessible to the public. The challenge of meshing an artistic direction with what is appropriate to a location and specific audience demands a certain flexibility and willingness to engage in the collaborative process. This experience has proven to be extremely gratifying due to the enthusiastic public response to the mural projects I have completed.(Carol Nordgren, 1986)
