About

Hi there!

​

I'm Clair and I've been creating art in many different guises for a long time. 

I started with a BA Fine Art Painting at Manchester School of Art, and have completed an MA Illustration with Falmouth University last year, managing to bag myself a distinction which I'm very proud of. I've also completed The Goodship Picture Book course, and The Goodship's Fly Your Freak Flag course in between times, which were both amazing experiences. (Highly recommend)

I was a face and body painter for four years before the pandemic which I won national awards for and would teach and organise conventions. That feels like a life time ago now though, but it certainly taught me skills in speed painting (on wiggly surfaces)!

​

I live in Greater Manchester close to the city centre, however I dream of the countryside, or the seaside, or anywhere a little quieter in fact.

I have four daughters, a husband, and a load of pets (not in any particular order) and in my spare time I like to read fantasy and sci-fi novels, watch similar themed films or series, horse ride, and drink earl grey tea.

​

I am currently looking for agency representation.
