FEATURED COLLECTION

IN QUIET COLOUR

This collection gathers paintings where colour softens and settles into something more understated. Drawn from both earlier and recent work, each piece reflects a quieter palette and a gentler presence, inviting a slower, more contemplative way of seeing.

Across these works, colour is layered and softened, creating subtle shifts that reveal themselves over time. Though created in different seasons of the studio, they are connected by an intuitive pull toward calm, openness, and restraint.

Together, these paintings offer a quieter expression of the work, one that invites you to pause, look a little longer, and notice what gently unfolds.

“Claire’s works create joy. Vibrant, unexpected color palettes, inventive use of negative space, and dreamy washes alongside whimsical applications of super-thick paint stoke the viewer’s imagination.”

- Dave Tirio (musician and visual artist)
