About
Well now that you have found me, let me introduce myself. My name is Carol Roark and I am a very fortunate artist living on a small horse farm on the edge of the Mississippi Delta. This is a perfect situation for me, because in case you haven't notice I am very passionate about not only my horses, but also the Mississippi landscape where I have lived all my life.
A person is very blessed to take the things she enjoys most and find a way to make a living with them. I thank God every day for that gift. It is amazing how my two "habits" have influenced each other. The horses have allowed me to meet the contacts who in turn gave me many portrait opportunities. These in return helped me support my horses!
The landscapes just came naturally from living in such a beautiful part of the country. The majority of the landscape paintings you will see on this site are painted on location, most of the time within 15 miles of our farm. (It's okay if this makes you a little jealous, I would be too!)
So I invite you to sit down, relax, have a cold glass of ice tea and let me show you MY Mississippi.
