Embedded Files
I am a freelance artist/illustrator who works primarily in traditional media (watercolor, gouache, colored pencil, and pen and ink) and by commission.
I am an active urban/travel sketcher and a volunteer administrator for the DC chapter of Urban Sketchers.
Broadly in my art, I explore themes of place, nostalgia, and memory and I love to visually interpret academic research. Until recently, I ran a small business in stationary.
I am available for original commissions and my artwork has been recognized here.
Interested in working with me? Please get in touch!

"Claire is a wonderful artist and I was thrilled to commission her for a cover image for my academic book! She designed and painted a beautiful image, which creatively illustrates key themes from my book. I am very happy with the final product and appreciated her collaborative approach on the commission. She put a lot of thought and care into developing the piece so that it aligns with themes from the book. She was also very responsive to my questions and feedback. I had a great experience with this commission and strongly recommend Claire's work."
