Artist Bio: Clare Lacanau |
|
Welcome to my tranquil creative corner of the artworld. I'm Clare Lacanau, a Brisbane based artist with a background in professional portrait and fine art photography, and a love of embroidery. I'm inspired to create gentle, soothing, joyful art work, featuring soft romantic flowers and botanical elements. I use light as my paint brush, often with a soft pastel palette. These art pieces are created using photographic, in-camera techniques, light and movement. It is hoped that they bring a sense of calm and contentment, offering respite from the busyness and stresses of daily life. Creating calming spaces and a gentle invitation to slow down, reflect, and just be in the moment appreciating the beauty within and around us. I produce unapologetically feminine, original, collectable art pieces, on professional, archival quality, canvas and cotton fine art papers. A select few artworks are embellished with embroidery and finished with a paint medium which adds a texture and richness to the piece. My art allows me to slow down and helps quieten my mind almost like a meditation and I hope by sharing these pieces I am able to share this with other artists and collectors.
