Claire Leach - Artist Biography
I am an exhibited artist and have sold several paintings. My home is in the vale of South Lincolnshire in a small village. The local scenery is one of my inspirations. I love landscape painting and particularly watercolour, although I do experiment with other media and allowing the paint to do what it wants!
My paintings are inspired by the landscape and nature around me. I especially enjoy wide open skies and capturing the atmosphere glimpsed when the sun shines through stormy clouds. The different shapes and textures visible when the sun shines on a field, a building or a tree is magical and it is this feeling I want to show through my paintings.
I have recently started pottery and like painting find that the best results are when you allow the clay to do what it wants!
I paint for myself, galleries and welcome commissions. I am also available to demonstrate to groups and tuition.
