Claire Harkess
Style Guide: Animals & Still Life
Graduated at Glasgow School of Art in the early 1990’s, since graduating Claire has exhibited widely throughout the U.K . and has had a number of solo shows. Including the University of York, The Open Eye Gallery, Edinburgh. Her work has been represented at art fairs in Glasgow,London, and New York
Wildlife and the natural world are predominant in Claire’s work. She won first prize in the Arches Watercolour Competition for wildlife in 1996 two years later becoming the artist-in-residence at the Royal Zoological Society,Edinburgh.
Claire Writes:
Concentrating on the natural world, wildlife is a dominant theme. To keep the subject alive, the necessity for speed has drawn me to watercolour as my preferred medium. The process is immediate and instinctive. Every brushstroke vivisble, I strive to allow the paint the freedom to speak for itself, thus creating a dialogue between myself and the ever evolving work.
