A bit about me ...

Caryn Dahm working with a client
As an Italian-American mother of 3, I am passionate about family and food. Many of my art pieces boast fresh fruits and family recipes. Some of my favorite things are gardening, cooking, being on the water and painting. My food illustrations and warm balmy landscapes reflect my passions. 

Art has never left my side (at least not for long). Creating things brought me much joy growing up and still does. I have served professionally as a watercolor artist, designer and illustrator for clients both large and small. I love putting company names, inspirational verses and thoughts with watercolors creating inspiring cards and wall art imagery. With a background in graphic design and a degree in visual communication from The Ohio State University, merging type and watercolors is the ultimate in beauty to me.

​I teach adults, kids, home schoolers and teens year round as well as hosting an annual summer art camp for elementary aged children at a local church. When teaching and collaborating on projects, I love learning about people's hopes, histories and styles. I enjoy helping people relax and learn skills and techniques that enable them to create without fear. 

Watercolors are my absolute favorite medium. There is just something spectacular about sitting down with that sheet of stiff, white, empty paper and watching it transform into something meaningful. Many times when I paint or design I have had in imagery in my head just waiting its turn to be put on paper. I start by planning edges and values and penciling in my subject matter first. Having the outline out of the way allows me to relax and enjoy the painting and design process more freely.


Be Still and KNOW that I am God Psalm 46:10
One of my favorite aspects of watercolor is letting the colors intermingle on the paper within the water yielding surprising and often unexpected results. 

Watercolors are also a great medium for artists with children because they lend themselves to being interrupted! Taking those drying breaks in between layers of color truly does yield better, fresher looking results.

My main inspirations comes from things that I love and care about. Have a look at a few of my collection of  Culinary Art or my local paintings of Oviedo and Florida.
