ARTIST

Carol Dunford-Jackman considers the human form to be the Lord's ultimate creation, and as such, men, women, and children present the greatest inspiration and challenge to her artistically.  Sculpting chiefly women and children, she draws from here experiences as a woman and mother to achieve greater emotion in her work.

A native of Utah, she attended Brigham Young University where she graduated with a BA degree in Fine Art, with an emphasis in oil and watercolor.  After raising five children she returned to BYU to study sculpture under Dallas Anderson.  She soon found that sculpture was her true love and quickly began to flourish as an artist.

She has found success with her sculpture, receiving Juror's Choice awards at the Springville Art Museum Spring Salon, Purchase Award from an American Congress of Art and Design exhibit, the Sculpture Award at the Mormon Arts Festival, and many others.  She has also executed many life size pieces, including a monument honoring hospital volunteers at the Utah Valley Regional Medical Center.  Her work is represented in many private garden settings and in collections across the country.
