Clare Wilcox

An older woman with long gray hair and glasses painting an abstract artwork on a large canvas. She is holding a palette knife and wearing a light purple shirt, blue jeans, and a paint-splattered apron. The painting features bold red, orange, and black colors with some white and blue elements.

Rather than pen & paper Clare chooses to tell her story with paint and colour. She continues to explore her relationship with the landscape. Our changing importance of water to our land while farming methods adapt to new challenges. This reflects to our communities that she paints the change and adaption in our lives post pandemic world.

Sometimes our isolation bubbles we form seem joined together by fragile umbilical cords linking families and friends across cities & countries, or merely by with conversation that float across our land. Clare’s hope is that her work can make you feel emotional and smile and this is how she paints. Art is not what you see, but what it can make you feel
