I'm Claire, an artist living and working in the rugged windswept hills of North Wales, UK.
I live in an area totally surrounded by nature, which suits me perfectly as one of my absolute favourite things to do is set off, sketchbook in hand, to explore wonderful Welsh woodlands and other wild places. The process of discovering the flora and fauna which I come across, learning about how they interconnect and support each other, as well as researching the rich folklore and traditions that surround different species is so important to my artwork.
These discoveries fuel my creative process as I work in my studio on paintings inspired by the wild things that I find. I offer these paintings as professionally printed giclée art prints for anyone who wants to add a little of the wild and wonderful into their home.
Claire ydw i, artist sy’n byw ac yn gweithio ym mryniau gwyntog garw Gogledd Cymru, DU.
Rwy’n byw mewn ardal sydd wedi’i hamgylchynu’n llwyr gan natur, sy’n fy siwtio’n berffaith gan mai un o fy hoff bethau absoliwt i’w wneud yw cychwyn, llyfr braslunio mewn llaw, i archwilio coetiroedd bendigedig Cymru a mannau gwyllt eraill. Mae’r broses o ddarganfod y fflora a’r ffawna dwi’n dod ar eu traws, dysgu sut maen nhw’n cydgysylltu a chynnal ei gilydd, yn ogystal ag ymchwilio i’r llên gwerin a’r traddodiadau cyfoethog sy’n amgylchynu gwahanol rywogaethau mor bwysig i fy ngwaith celf.
Mae'r darganfyddiadau hyn yn tanio fy mhroses greadigol wrth i mi weithio yn fy stiwdio ar baentiadau sydd wedi'u hysbrydoli gan y pethau gwyllt rydw i'n dod o hyd iddyn nhw. Rwy'n cynnig y paentiadau hyn fel printiau celf giclée wedi'u hargraffu'n broffesiynol i unrhyw un sydd am ychwanegu ychydig o'r gwyllt a'r rhyfeddol i'w cartref.
