By permission of the artist, The Cyber Art Show is pleased to feature the second of two 12-piece exhibitions of works by American landscape painter Carol L. Zack (born 1948 in Illinois, USA).

 

An award-winning, classically-trained artist Carol currently specializes in the use of oil pastel with a focus on landscapes, florals and figurative paintings.  She is as passionate about painting, as she is about teaching other people about the importance of the visual arts.
 

Born and raised in upstate Illinois, Carol attended high school in Champaign, IL and attended undergraduate college in Nashville, TN and completed her MA at the University of Illinois.  She taught high school in Rantoul, IL for 6 years and after teaching at the University of Illinois as a graduate teaching assistant, moved to Muncie, Indiana to teach at Ball State University.

 

Carol has studied painting with Fred Attebury, Arthur Orr, Edward Betts, Mark Sprague, Glenn Bradshaw, Billy Morrow Jackson, George Shipperley, Jerry Power, David Hettinger and Robert Burridge.
