"As an abstract textural painter, I'm drawn to the calming, meditative flow of fluid strokes in neutral, often monochromatic palettes. I create work in harmony with interior spaces, balancing the structure of architecture and design with the organic movement of my art. My aim is to elevate spaces with minimalist compositions that soothe, intrigue, and invite quiet reflection."
-Claire Cetera
As a painter, Claire studied at USC receiving their BA in Fine Arts: Painting and Photography and continued their education at The Art Center in Pasadena in figure drawing and oil painting. They are skilled in realism and portraiture, specializing in oils, and while they continue to enjoy drawing the body in abstract line drawings, they also have shifted focus to large scale, neutral, abstract, minimalist pieces, applying heavy texture while using mixed mediums involving plaster, sand, oil, metal, acrylic, gesso and fabric.
