For nearly a decade, Carole Fournier has developed a distinctive mixed-media painting practice characterized by textured reliefs and custom color blends. Using glazes prepared from food-based materials, cooking plants, Indian ink, and pigments, she creates vividly layered surfaces often accented with gold leaf, a recurring element in her work. Fournier’s paintings evoke the dramatic forces of nature—storms, tornadoes, clouds, volcanic eruptions—ranging from land to sea, occasionally introducing fantastical qualities. Her work conveys both the power of the natural world and a sense of human insignificance before its scale.
