Open Spaces. Carol Clay, artist<\/p><\/div>\n

By Gina Malone<\/p>\n

Although Carol Clay, in her youth, always felt drawn to artistic people\u2014\u201cthe poets of the world, the ones in drama class, the ones who effortlessly created beautiful paintings in art class\u201d\u2014she pursued a different path in college, graduating with a degree in social and behavioral science. \u201cLuckily, for me, my creative bug wasn\u2019t going to be denied,\u201d she says. \u201cAfter graduating college, every job I held had something to do with special events, marketing or advertising.\u201d With that pattern noted, she decided to open her own marketing and graphic design business\u2014a business she grew for 20 years. \u201cDuring that time,\u201d she says, \u201cI honed my writing skills, developed my business and surrounded myself with creative talent that taught me about design, color theory, fonts, paper selection and more.\u201d<\/p>\n

She and her husband left Florida for Western North Carolina in 2005, eventually settling in Brevard. \u201cSometime around 2018, I decided if I was ever going to pursue any kind of creative endeavor for myself, it was now or never,\u201d Clay says. \u201cI took a class at Blue Ridge Community College, then over a couple of years I worked with local artists Billy Smith and Ann DerGara, who helped me really develop a taste for being an artist. From there I branched out on my own, learning as I went along with workshops and lots of videos, and plenty of failed paintings.\u201d<\/p>\n

When she approached Number 7 Arts about becoming a member, she was painting mostly farm animals, specifically cows and roosters. \u201cI didn\u2019t grow up with either so I\u2019ve never been sure where that influence came from, but I went with it,\u201d she says. \u201cOver the four years that I was in Number 7, my style changed dramatically. I still painted roosters, but I retired the cows in favor of landscapes inspired by the amazing beauty here and in the Lowcountry of South Carolina.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yellow Pear No. 1. Carol Clay, artist<\/p><\/div>\n

In January, her work was accepted into the Lucy Clark Gallery & Studio, in Brevard. \u201cHer growth as an artist has been exponential,\u201d says owner Lucy Clark. \u201cHer use of composition and the fluidity of her landscapes always bring a sense of peace to the viewer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Clay sometimes approaches her creative process in an intuitive way, beginning to paint with a vague idea of where she wants to go. She finds that she works better, however, if she has a plan in mind\u2014one that includes sketches and questioning herself about what she wants to portray. \u201cMy art isn\u2019t about finding some sort of deeper meaning to life or illustrating some sort of emotion,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s more about connecting with people. How does the painting make them feel?\u201d<\/p>\n

She learned about one connection when she received an email from a woman who had purchased one of her paintings while visiting Brevard. The bird in the painting resembled a raven. \u201cShe explained how she was inexplicably drawn to go into Number 7 Arts, and directly to this painting,\u201d Clay says. \u201cShe went on to tell me how she had lost her son to a Fentanyl overdose a few years prior. He was interested in various mythologies and had raven tattoos up and down his arms. She said whenever she sees a raven she feels more connected to her lost son, and she knew it was that connection that drew her to this specific painting.\u201d<\/p>\n

While painting, Clay says that she can become completely absorbed in the process such that she loses all track of time. \u201cSometimes I have music on, but sometimes I revel in the quiet as the paint and I have our conversations,\u201d she says. \u201cOne thing I have learned over the years is when to walk away. There are some days when it simply isn\u2019t working, for whatever reason. I\u2019ve learned that it\u2019s best to put the brushes down and walk away for a while. It will all be there when I come back and try again.\u201d<\/p>\n
