Carol Blackhurst (web site) Carol grew up on a cattle farm in remote Needmore, Arkansas.  After receiving her degree in Computer Science from Arkansas Tech University, Carol moved to the Washington, D.C. suburbs where she wrote real estate assessment software for Fairfax County Government.  She relocated to Orlando, Florida in 1997 and currently works for a world-wide corporation writing credit card transaction software.  Always artistic, Carol discovered watercolors in 2005.  Using her self-taught technique, she focuses on pet portraits, but her work includes a vast array of subjects painted from photographs.  Her donated paintings are raffled off each year at the Turkey Track Bluegrass Festival in Waldron, Arkansas to raise money for cancer research in memory of her mother and a childhood friend.   She has also donated her paintings to the United Way, Homeward Bound pet rescue organization and Florida Writer’s Association.  Carol is a member of the Florida Writer’s Association.  She is writing a series of science fiction/fantasy novels.
