Carol Anne Bell-Smith, RN, DMSc

Carol Anne Bell-Smith began her artistic journey as the photo finish photographer at a local racetrack at 16. Her love of old film lenses and new technology informs her of own personal style of Impressionist Photography. A nurse, a minister, a poet, a member of Spirit of the Hills and a 10-year member of Art De Triomphe, she has had many solo and group shows. Her photography has won many local and international awards and has a very recognizable style.

In the manner of the French Impressionists such as Monet, Renoir, and Chagall, Impressionist Photographer Carol Anne uses light, lines, color, and technique to evoke emotion in the viewer. Impressionist Photography is a type of fine art photography that relies on legacy lenses, motion, selective defocus, multiple exposure and filters.

Carol Anne uses a power wheelchair for mobility and in many ways this has been an advantage forcing her to look at the world in a very different way.
