Caroline Fulton is a practising artist born in Edinburgh, Scotland and currently living and working in Morocco. She graduated from the University of Newcastle in 2004 with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art.
Her drawings and paintings focus on portraying animals, in particular endangered wildlife, against a background of abstract and figurative patterns, representative of the human culture of each species' native environment.
"With one in four mammals currently faced with the threat of extinction, conservation of nature is an issue that we can no longer afford to ignore. Art provides a platform through which one can reach out to a wider audience and perhaps inspire them to think about the consequences of our personal and global actions and to realize that our own future depends upon the survival of all the other life forms with which we share our planet.
I hope that my paintings draw the viewer in with their decorative aesthetic and convey a truth about the condition of the individual animals that I depict, raising questions about how we must learn to understand, co-exist and ultimately respect the role that all life must play in insuring our own well-being and preserving our natural and cultural heritage."
