The Black Lipstick Army is Carolyn's newest art series, celebrating the strength and beauty of women from all walks of life. Each woman in the series wears black lipstick and has tattoos, symbolizing their connection to one another. But beyond that, each woman is unique, shaped by her own personal experiences and struggles.

This series focuses on the common bond all women share—the journey of womanhood. Each of us carries our own story, filled with challenges, joys, and growth, which shape us into who we are today. The women in these paintings come from different backgrounds and cultures, but their stories of resilience, strength, and vulnerability are universal. Some may seem tough or intimidating, but if you look closer, you'll find layers of softness, compassion, and grace beneath the surface.

The Black Lipstick Army is about embracing our shared experiences as women, recognizing our differences, and celebrating the strength that unites us all. It invites viewers to reflect on their own stories and connect with the deeper humanity within each woman in the series.
