FEATURED COLLECTION

OCEAN EXPLORATION

Ocean Exploration brings together paintings created during a transatlantic crossing aboard the yacht Evrima, where I was invited by The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection to lead workshops while at sea. Shaped by shifting light, open horizons, and the rhythm of life on the water, these works gather impressions of the journey—reflecting both a physical passage across the ocean and a quieter inward exploration through color and connection.

“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)
