Carole Jean:
In Memoriam
By Jack Radcliffe
In Memoriam
By Jack Radcliffe
I first began photographing Carole Jean in the 1970s, when she lived in a primitive $35-a-month tenant farmhouse with her son and boyfriend.
They were a self-sufficient household. There was an enormous vegetable garden for food, and they heated with wood. Carole Jean supported herself and her son, and without assistance from her family, earned an MFA.
Carole Jean lived the idyllic life of an artist; she painted, created mixed-media pieces, and photographed. Her paintings were colorful and fanciful, images inspired by her world travels, particularly to Oaxaca, Mexico. Her black and white and hand-colored photographs of elaborately costumed local children would have made Lewis Carroll envious.
On January 2, 2010 Carole Jeans' family and friends marked the passing of her life with a celebration at fleckenstein's Gallery in Baltimore, Maryland.
We Will Miss Her
