"Art heals. Trees are our sheltering relatives. We look up to them, and we hold them in high regard as if they have an inherent wisdom."

About Claire

Through the back door.

Claire came to art through the back door: hours wandering in the mountains with a field journal, then a graduate degree in natural science illustration, an M.S. in environmental studies, and finally art school with an MFA from Vermont College of Fine Art. For twenty years her work has connected art and conservation.
