Portrait of Claire Vessey, thoughtful expression

Claire is a painter living near the coast in the UK, working primarily in acrylic and occasionally in watercolour or coloured pencil. Her work blends abstraction with the natural world, often carrying an etheral, atmospheric quality. Through delicate layers of texture and tone, Claire explores themes of calm, soulfulness, and emotional depth.

​

While nature is at the heart of her abstract practice, Claire also creates expressive pet portraits that capture personality and warmth, as well as whimsical illustrations for children's books that reflect her love of storytelling and gentle imagination. These different threads of her work are united by sesitivity to mood and a deep appreciation for beauty in the everyday.

​

Art has been a lifelong passion for Claire, nurtured from childhood and shaped through formal studies in college and university. Whether through gallery work, commissioned portraits, or illustrated stories, her art invites a quiet sense of connection-with nature, with feeling, and with the moment.
