Caroline Mackintosh is a largely self taught contemporary landscape painter living and working in Suffolk. Working mainly in oil and oil and cold wax,  her semi-abstract figurative style is concerned with capturing the shapes and lines formed in the landscape, rather than a literal representation of place. Her inspiration comes largely from the marshes and estuaries that surround her, but also from travels further afield.
Having studied to foundation level at Norwich Art School and for a BA in Development Studies at the University of East Anglia, Caroline lived in Southern Ireland for several years, before returning to England to train as a primary school teacher. Caroline later specialised in teaching art in local primary schools and trained other teachers in the delivery of the art curriculum. In 2021 Caroline gave up teaching to focus entirely on her own art practice.
Caroline was shortlisted for The Sir John Hurt Art Prize in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. She regularly exhibits at galleries in Norfolk and Suffolk and last year she exhibited at both The Society of Women Artists 163rd Annual Exhibition and The Royal Institute of Oil Painters Annual Exhibition at The Mall Galleries, London. She has recently been invited to become an associate member of The Society of Women Artists (ASWA).
