Years ago, she happily made the move to a small town. She now enjoys living in a lovely, shoreline Connecticut town with her husband and their two, very spoiled, Shih Tzu rescues.

Frank Carroll is an artist who focuses on exploring the visual and emotional connections between painting and music. The different sounds, and styles of musical creativity affect the way he paints. Frank has a lifelong pursuit of conveying structure, color, and soul of the music he paints. His belief is that a song, album, or style of music could be brought to a visual medium, and can be felt and understood. His work not only sets the tone and visual of the painting, but adds dimension and depth through acrylic layers above the canvas, further delving into bringing a tangible connection to a sonic world. He also loves illustrating children's books!
