About the artist: telling her story

Cara’s artist journey began in childhood. Her first time being inspired by art came from her grandmother. She was an artist and always encouraged creativity and expressing oneself through art. From then, Cara built a dream of becoming a professional artist.

Cara is a mother of 3. Motherhood is another journey, full of lessons, joy, and growth. Juggling motherhood and making art was a way that allowed Cara’s creativity and dreams to grow in many different paths.

She currently is teaching middle school art.

Life is ever-changing. We grow, move, grow, then move again. Pivots are necessary in order to grow to your full potential.

Cara currently resides in Sacramento, California with her three kids and husband. She’s built a part-time business of watercolor portrait painting, paint night events, and continues to develop her skills by exploring portrait painting with watercolor, acrylics, and oil pastels.

Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
