Black Swans indicate deep mysteries within us that are longing to be set free to express themselves creatively � perhaps through art, poetry, or music. Symbolism for a black swan is transformation.... It is said that a swan sings only once in her lifetime, & that is right before she dies. I had hidden away my artistic talents for over 20 years. I let the most important part of me die. My art & poetry is the biggest part of who I am & expresses the person inside. I call this self portrait "Inside Out"
Hello, my name is Carla Carson. My home here on FAA houses all of my art I have mastered over a span of many years. I reside in Phoenix Arizona, but I am originally from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. It is from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh where I earned my Associates degree in Visual Communications. I work primarily with Charcoal & Pastels, & what you see in my art, poetry, and books, comes from my heart & soul, a reflection of myself. I find all my inspiration in the beauty of each day, & in the amazing people I have met in my lifetime. It is my love for people & my passion for life, that drives me to go after my set goals & follow my dreams. It has been placed upon my heart to start writing and illustrating children's books.

Carla, the more I look at your gallery the more grows my admiration for you - the master of charcoal - the master of expression - and reading your words I feel very touched! We have all the same feeling about time - we cannot stop it - but in our works we find any minute stored. May that little glimpse of happyness grow in you to a warming fire again !! Dagmar VF
Carla Carson replied:
Thank you Dagmar for those touching beautiful words. They will start my day putting a smile on my face & filling my heart! Thank You! :)

Rory Sagner
Well...now I understand a bit more about why I relate so much to your work...besides the obviousness of it's beauty. I pretty much did the same thing re the 20 years. This drawing really touches my heart. v/f
Carla Carson replied:
Thank You Rory. I'm so glad to have you & a few others in my network. This is one of my only bit of happiness in my train wreck of a life....... gotta keep on keepin on.. :)
Chris Gudger
It was sad that you kept your artistic talent bottled up for 20 years. Like fine red wine it grew better with time waiting to be released. But now you have released your talent. And the world is better for it. Great art improves the world. Put a stick of charcoal in your hands and a piece of paper in front of you and soon something beautiful will appear.
Carla Carson replied:
That my friend is one of the nicest, sweetest comments I had ever gotten! Now I will go to sleep with a smile on :D Thank You dearest Chris.. The world is also a better place because there are people like you in it too!!! Thank You again & again.... Carla :)
