details about this work


Caroline Rudge is based in Corsham, South West


Caroline's subversive and humorous portraits combine time honoured techniques with postmodern sensibilities. Playing with the notion of traditional portraiture, her striking paintings juxtapose the classic with the contemporary.

Caroline's technical aptitude and thought-provoking imagery, combine to produce memorable and imaginative characters.
