I find myself drawn to a forest for their magical sense of mystery and for the inner peace they offer me from the anxieties of life. There is something so quiet and calming about the beauty of the trees and the creatures that inhabit these wooded areas.
For me, I connect with nature on a spiritual level, as do many ancient cultures believe in a "world tree" that connects everyone to the divine. No matter where you are in the world, a forest is a refuge, a sacred place of mystery and earthy goodness.
Whenever I feel sad, or anxious or needing to unwind... a forest is a safe place of healing. When I step into her woody smells and leafy greenness -its as if she is always welcoming me home. I wanted to create a painting that embodies all the things a forest make one feel, and hope it gives you some respite, tranquility, and a welcome home feeling too!
Giclee:
Our signed and numbered canvas giclees are printed on canvas to give the look and feel of the original and are the same size as the original painting. By printing on canvas, the colors achieved are bright and vivid, mirroring the intensity of Clair’s originals. Our canvas giclees are stretched on heavy duty stretcher bars and Gallery Wrapped and ready to hang! Clairs editions are kept small, usually between 40 - 100 depending on the piece.
Artist Proof
A limited number of only 10 in the edition. CLAIR creates an alternate version of the original by painting and reworking the printed canvas surface of each Artist’s Proof, with lots of texture and paint, going over the entire piece. Each custom high definition reproduction, features its own unique set of details, and there are no two in existence that are identical. She can even change the people in the painting to look like you, change hair eye color, add a favorite pet, favorite wine label, write an anniversary date in the clouds or keep it exactly as the original. Each painting is finished with her signature on the front and signed and numbered on the back.

Metal Giclee:
This is a new process that lends it self to CLAIRS vibrant colors. The process is created using a die-sublimation process in which the inks are transferred and then heated onto a special type of metal that locks in the color, gloss and vibrancy! The smaller mini's on metal make a great statement, and come with hanging hardware on the back and are ready to put on the wall as soon as you get it. Or, If you are looking for a real stand alone vibrant art piece, we can do a custom size if you choose! This is a great option if you have a lot of sun, as they are more UV resistant.
