The South African acrylic painter Carla Bosch is known for her vibrant colors and bold strokes that trademark an unapologetic style. Her landscape paintings represent a wide range of nature’s palette uniquely capturing its light. Carla was born in Pretoria in 1976 to Anton, a pharmacist and amateur artist, and Ronel Gericke a home-maker and keen musician. She has a sister Murentia.  Carla describes her childhood spent enjoying family hikes around South Africa as happy and loving. Her father encouraged an interest in art and she would follow his lead as she explored different mediums. Carla studied Interior Design at the University of Pretoria and although she says she has always had high energy and a limited attention it would be art that would fully absorb her as as self taught artist. By the age of 25 she found herself a full-time artist, and with the help of her husband Elroy, Carla operates a successful business with clients around the world. The couple moved to the US in 2013 spending five years in California before relocating to Texas.  Carla is represented in galleries in France, the UK, South Africa, Maryland and Texas. Carla has two children: Sarah and Daniel, and lives with her husband Elroy and their Chocolate Labradoodle Jamie in Austin, Texas. Carla’s website: https://www.carlabosch.com/Carla on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carlaboschart@carlaboschart Some of Carla’s favorite female artists: Isabel Le RouxIrma SternMaggie Laubser Host: Chris StaffordProduced by Hollowell StudiosFollow @theaartpodcast on InstagramAART on FacebookEmail: hollowellstudios@gmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/aart--5814675/support.
