Inspiration
Every new painting is an adventure; I never know where I will end up!
A sketchbook and camera accompany me wherever I go: you never know when the perfect light or shadow are going to appear! I find that inspiration is more a state of mind rather than an external vision.
I can be presented with the perfect reflection on a lake, but if my mind, or should I say – my heart, isn’t into it, well it won’t translate into a good piece of art.
Featured Work
Kendall-Jackson Winery
Kendall-Jackson of Sonoma County, CA commissioned Claudia to do the original art work for Kendall-Jackson’s Heirloom Tomato Festival, “Sleeping with Giants”. She was also commissioned to do an original painting of the Kendall-Jackson tasting room and gardens (the painting is on display inside the Tasting Room facility in Santa Rosa), and custom presentation boxes for wine and promotional items.
