Grain Painting, Ice/Tie Dyeing
Carolyn began stenciling and graining in 1983 when a dear friend asked her if she was interested in experimenting with the technique. She was smitten, and her business, Heartwood Collections, was born. She has the distinction of being selected for ‘Early American Life’ magazine’s Directory of Traditional American Crafts ‘ornamental painting’ category for 14 years, and was a juried Demonstrating Artisan at the Waterford Fair for 20 years until her retirement.
