I did make a series of sculpture, all of which were disasters one way or another.
The one I liked best I dropped a hammer on and broke a side.
Glued it together to put in the garden. ‘
I may add a photo of a couple.

Posted on April 23, 2012 by carol - No Comments

I have a 30 year history of sketches, from the murders at Lily Lake to the Legere case covered by Carole MacNeil  (CBC )in Fredericton to the ‘garbage bag’ murders in the Hampton courthouse. I’ve travelled the province when hired by CBC, ATV/CTV and the Telegraph Journal on a rare occasion. My work for some trials were shown across Canada. on national networks.

The Telegraph in Saint John has modernized…they are now online.  Using my courtroom sketches they are combination of todays world and age old mediums… of pencil and chalk.

from the Apr 21 Telegraph Journal.

Carol Taylor

I am reading   ...
It's been a hectic, busy six months so I have assorted books
that I can read calmly
 for a few minutes at a time, in different spots in our house.
 Growing Pains, an autobiography of Emily Carr is upstairs,
 one of the Outlander books is in the downstair bathroom
and I'm reading Mr Hazens's 
Get Yerself a Shin O”heat: the Irish Collection to Gerry at night
as he shaves. AND Kathy just dropped off Tracy Chevalier's
 Remarkable Creatures.

Someone who makes me laugh is ...my husband,
 not always at appropriate times

At home I cook ...basic stuff...depends on who is home,
chili with cornbread on top is on the menu now that David and his
family has returned from Calgary.

My first job was ...  folding very hot sheets off the mangler
 with Mrs Forward in the Sussex Laundry.

A person I admire is ...anyone who speaks easily in public

My secret skill is ...keeping secrets

I aspire to ...enjoy every day

The best invention ever is ...deadlines, as in newspaper deadlines...or commitment deadlines 

My favourite toy as a child was ... my brother Jim's building set he received from Santa.
 It had a little green platform, metal rods and red bricks, white windows, doors, etc. I loved it.

The best part of what I do for a living is ...making my art ideas become a reality

I wish I had ...our bathroom reno finished

My favourite vacation spot is ...currently,wherever my grandchildren are;
 once, New York would have topped the list.

If I could invite three people to dinner, alive or dead, they would be .. my grandmother...
because it would be nice to see her and as we get older it's always nice to have 
family questions answered......
maybe who ever thought placing sand under pavement was a great idea, that could lead 
to a lively discussion.. oh, and whoever takes responsibility for strawberry worms.... 
If I could have a super power, it would be ... to fly gracefully

My favourite thing about the Kennebecasis Valley is ...it has everything I need....almost
