N THE Floral Impressions series,
Carter extends his skill in creating
unique and dynamic surface textures.
This series is best classified as mixed
media, and he utilizes a wide range
of materials including molding paste,
paint, glitter, gold leaf, resin, and
several different kinds of texturizing
mediums.
“The flower series has been devel-oping
for many years and originated
from two earlier series: my process art
flowers and candy dot pieces,” he says.
“Those eventually merged and became
this. They are colorful, bright, and in
your face. Life can be really hard, and
sometimes you need that thing that
tells you that it’s going to be OK. There
is also a tactile feel to them. This is
because they’re coated in glass resin.
They’re just meant to be fun and vibrant
and to add some color and a smile to
the viewer’s life.”
