CAROLE WADE is now applying all that was learned in her 30-year career as a graphic designer to a new adventure as a painter. Carole spent eight years living on her 30’ sailboat, Italic, traveling the east coast from Nova Scotia to the Florida Keys, the Bahamas and crossing the Atlantic and back single-handed. She spent four years in Europe, from England to the Canary Islands There the Mediterranean-type light, old world architecture and a year until the season was right to cross the pond conspired and inspired the urge to paint. Wade is now living in Park City where she can pursue her passions of skiing and playing bridge, as well as having a great place to paint.
