Carrie Olsen Garrard

After a highly satisfying career in Product Development, as Creative Director, Carrie  has worked in tandem with many recognized  Home Décor, Garden and Giftware Companies and Associates around the world.

Carrie is thrilled to return to her roots, where she finds herself drawn back to the raw, tactile experience of her hands in CLAY in all varieties and textures.  Casting in Stone compounds provides another layer of nuance of color and texture.  This reconnection with the medium has reignited her original inspiration, reminding her of the reasons she chose a creative path in the first place.

 Florabundance, is a series and testament to this renewed connection. Through her work in clay, Carrie seeks to capture the essence of emotion between subtle human expression and the beauty of nature that surrounds us.
