art at axom home
At Axom Home we are committed to supporting and promoting the visual arts scene in Rochester. Our goal is to make art accessible to the community by featuring fine art from regional & local artists in our dedicated space within Axom Home throughout the year.
This support results in 100% of our net proceeds from art sales going directly to the artist.

Artist Statement
My creative process is an act of self-actualization with imagery that is both representational and abstract. I work in different mediums depending on how expression beckons, and allow myself to be taken over by the creative impulse. Unplanned results provide fruitful abstract imagery from which to dig further. These paintings are a result of such endeavors.
Indoor studio activities include printmaking and painting. Bookbinding and Book Arts also occupy a corner of the studio. I have created hundreds of sketchbooks for travelling and casual drawing. Summertime find me outdoors painting en plein air.
Carol studied at the All of Us Art Workshop as a youth where she learned the old master’s technique of oil painting and attended live figure drawing sessions. She continued her formal Art education at The School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, majoring in painting and art glass, and attended a semester abroad in Cortona, Italy, where she returns to on a regular basis. Traveling has been a passion for Carol, she has explored many European towns with her handmade sketchbooks and painting rig in tow. She has attended numerous workshops and residencies, among the Pilchuck Glass Center, Center for Book Arts, Women’s Studio Workshop and The Cortona Studies Abroad program. Her work has been shown in numerous exhibitions, and at her studio in the Anderson Arts building.

living with art
Our intention is to broaden the exposure of art to people who wouldn’t otherwise go to a traditional art gallery. This experience helps to inform the idea of living with art. Showing you, our visitor, how the presence of art transforms everyday living into a richer experience. We hope that our creative environment inspires you in your own home.
Exploring the connection between Fine Art and Interior Design makes us unique. We celebrate the vibrant energy that emerges when visual art and interior design intersect. With each exhibition we intentionally mix artwork with our modern upholstery, carefully crafted case goods, and accessories to create inspiring room vignettes with a distinctive aesthetic.
