Clare Wassermann is a painter and textile artist living in Wolverhampton, England – although here she is in Ironbridge, one of her favourite local haunts!

“I love to build layer upon layer of colours seeing how they vibrate together. Images, words and ideas emerge, are released and let go of as the work progresses. Eventually an idea for a final composition surfaces and a still point is attained.

As I work I listen to music which often comes from Hindu, Buddhist or other Eastern sources. I definitely use the energy of the music as inspiration, whether it be calming or uplifting. I also use ideas generated from my yoga and meditation practice.

Nature and wildlife are important sources of inspiration and mostly my paintings reflect our interconnectedness with all beings – a celebration of life. The work is uplifting and peaceful at the same time.

The progression of my paintings echo the qualities I try to live by as I like to hone my intuition and practise acceptance and letting go in my life. I suppose you could say that the nature of impermanence and peace are my focus.”
