Carolyn Muir of Artform the Heart is a Scottish artist and designer working in a variety of media. She finds inspiration from a wide selection of sources and as such her body of work is exceptionally varied. Of particular interest to Carolyn is art nouveau in the style of renowned fellow Scottish artist Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Another area which holds her interest is textural work; from the folds and weave of fabrics, to the roughness of stonework. Carolyn's work for the main part is incredibly detailed.

I love Jude's cat paintings, they look as though they could leap from the canvas at any second.
