As one of the leading contemporary artists in the UK, Caroline Shotton’s infamous collection of bovine art has not only re-defined the perimeters of modern day portraiture, but has shed a new light on our appreciation of art and the role it plays in our day to day lives. Relinquishing the barriers of ‘high-brow’ art, Caroline has carved her own path into the art world, offering viewers a light-hearted depiction of the complexities of emotion, expression and character. In Caroline’s latest oeuvre ‘TheTudors’ she takes on the OldMasters at their own game. Drawing inspiration from Michelangelo, Botticelli, Caravaggio and Rembrandt, her meticulously created works re-invent the stoic portraits of the age inhibiting them with an approachable warmth and sentiment. “I really set myself a new challenge with these paintings in terms of what I wanted to achieve; I wanted to push myself to a new level, see what I can accomplish and these paintings are the start of an exciting new artistic era for me” This skilfully executed collection marks a major watershed in both Caroline’s artistic talent and development; balancing a revival of her natural style along with a major advancement in her artistic endeavour.

S H A L L I C O M PA R E T H E E TO A S U MM E R ’ S D A Y ? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, And summer’s lease hath all too short a date: Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And oft’ is his gold complexion dimm’d; And every fair from fair sometime declines, By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d: But thy eternal summer shall not fade Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; Nor shall death brag thou wanderest in his shade, When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
