Oeuvre: 750+ Artworks in 30 years
"I rinsed my brush in my crystal of Cab, used my toothbrush on some Botanical Garden works, sandpapered a dozen bespoke Holy Land pics, tore up stacks of my originals sold my career-changing purple thistles drawing for $100 just
to get it out of my possession and sight -
I donated about 70 originals to non-profits, 28,000 1st Ed S/N GiclΓ©es, prints and
2,500+ Ode to Joy journals (A USN SEAL
told me her dad saw one in Australia and the head of family security personally saw one
on Mr. Perot's daughter Caroline's desk).

Carroll's TRUMP Card

"His Serene Majesty the King of Spain Juan Carlos 1 sent me a letter 1-2 days after receiving a 1st Edition of my first journal, Ode to Joy (2013). His letter came with a courtesy translation and cover letter written by his Ambassador in Washington, D.C.
BILLBOARD
"I paint LOVE, because love isn't soft, it's hard.
My fingers move with the passion of a prophet
and the patience of a saint who's in LOVE. I'm not here to coast- Life's like turn 21 on the
Jeddah Corniche Circuit. (ΨΩΨ¨Ψ© ΩΩΨ±ΩΩΨ΄ Ψ¬Ψ―Ψ©).
I was inspired by the monochromatic 1893 Columbian postage stamps, all based on paintings - I sold my collection to help pay
my way to watercolor studies in Spain.
You LOVE my art, or you do not.

"Four-star General Tommy Franks (Ret),
former USCENTCOM Commander that oversaw a 25-country-region including the Middle East, penned the foreword to my 1st book, Ode to Joy, which he called a 'therapeutic journal'.
"Kitsy Westmoreland had her NY attorney son take her picture with me at a small private dinner aboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach, attended by 40 Medal of Honors and two
Knight of Malta Commanders who reported to the Pope. I was invited to join a priory with Presidents Reagan, Carter, Gorbachev, and South American presidents. I declined. Arrangements were made by Westy's ADC;
I went as the guest of a Knight of Malta oil company president. Then, the dean of neurosurgery, a Knight of Columbus, hosted a private lunch for me in his office. One mentor, a Brewer's sinker-slider pitcher laughing said, 'I threw one too many pitches to Barry Bonds' ---
I was a Little League RF and a P ... 7th to 11th-Grade I wrestled, was an NRA sharpshooter, played Varsity tennis --- I had tennis lessons since I was knee high to a racquet, raced bikes on the banked track and qualified as Alternate to Nationals --- my first year. I love bicycling! Then, I ran distance on 70 to 95 sub-six miles weekly for 20+ yrs. I was a backpacker, hiker, canoeist ... and entomologist. As I grow old, I will change physically, but I still have the same ol' composure, competitiveness and chutzpah.
I brake late.
"World champions & Hallmark romance films with Canadian actresses, inspire me.
Most of my paintings were made while listening to Classical 101.1 FM Dallas.
I get fueled by the best of the very best".
