Looking at these paintings could really put a pep in your day. I’m a huge fan of the bright and bold nature of these paintings, as well as their organic character. When finding out about Claire on pinterest, this was an easy must-pin kind of work for me. I also can’t awkwardly stop saying her last name aloud here at home. Having a cool french last name is always a plus.
“Claire Desjardins is passionate about contemporary abstract art–in particular, the relationship between colour and form…Claire comes from a long line of artists in her family, and embraces the multi-cultural experience, traveling whenever she is able to. Much of her art-oriented family is spread out across Europe and in Quebec. She grew up speaking both English and French. Her personal mantra is that each of us is the maker of our own destiny. Her bold, colourful work exudes this energy.”
I love these – the top one especially. Really beautiful colours and shapes.
