My name is Claire Duhe, and I am a local artist from New Orleans, Louisiana. I have been creating art (and messes) for as long as I can remember.
As a self-taught artist, my journey began as a personal exploration of my imagination and self, which has evolved into a passionate pursuit of creativity and expression. With no formal training, I have embraced the freedom to experiment and develop my unique voice through various mediums.
My primary focus is on mixed media and acrylic painting techniques. I am captivated by the possibilities that arise from combining different materials and textures, allowing me to create pieces that are rich in depth and complexity. Acrylic paints offer me the versatility to play with bold colors and intricate details, bringing my visions to life on canvas.
Through my art, I aim to convey emotions and stories that resonate with viewers, inviting them to experience a piece of my world. Each work is a journey, an exploration of the internal landscape of my thoughts and feelings. I take pride in the unconventional path I have walked, and I am grateful to share my journey with those who appreciate the beauty and power of artistic expression.
Art never ceases to bring me to happiness, even if temporary, and in those moments where I am hunched over a canvas, I can remember to smile, and I hope you'll do the same.
