Statement
As a studio art instructor of drawing and painting, Carrie Anne Baade (Pronounced baa`da as in Badda Bing) provides an environment where hard work and enthusiasm are contagious. Her courses are designed to provide a structured foundation while guiding each to pursue their own aesthetic exploration and to realize his or her individual vision. It is her goal to create future colleagues who are well researched, healthy, and articulate professionals.
Carrie’s paintings are quickly gaining recognition around the world. Her imaginative portraits and narratives are informed by religion and mythology. Gods, rulers, demons, and monsters play out the complexity of the human condition in her works that incorporate forgotten paintings to quote and interpret. Baade has been nominated for the 2007 United States Artist Fellowship. Her work is featured in Metamorphosis, a book released in the spring of 2007 featuring the top, contemporary Surrealists. In 2005, she received a National Endowment of the Arts Fellowship granted through the Delaware Division of the Arts. She received a B.F.A. from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and a Masters in Painting from the University of Delaware. Her paintings have been featured in NY ARTS Magazine, The Philadelphia Inquirer, Austin Chronicle, The Independent, and Philadelphia Today. In 2007, she has had solo exhibitions at the Delaware Center for Contemporary Art and The Ningbo Art Museum of China.
