Kevin Carr

Kevin Carr has taught painting, drawing, fibers, and printmaking for over a decade. As an instructor, he provides technical instruction with emphasis on the interests and aspirations of his students. You will find an empathetic and exciting environment in his classroom with an emphasis on creating and fostering joy.

Kevin’s practice is very interdisciplinary – taking the form of paintings, quilts, drawings, and sculptures. With an emphasis on color play, material history, process, and identity aesthetics, he finds new ways to communicate love, intimacy, and exuberance.
