Carolyn Ford was born in middle Tennessee and deeply influenced by Southern oral culture of storytelling, exaggerations, yarns, and colorful southernisms. As an avid traveler, she relishes learning odd folklore of each place she experiences thus attempting to sneak in some humor or stretch the truth in her art. Ford currently lives in Gaffney, South Carolina where she has been the Chair of the Art Department at Limestone College since 2010.
