Walking on a Cornish beach is a constant source of inspiration (therefore excitement) and relaxation for me. How it can be both at the same time is maybe a bit odd but when I’m wandering with my camera and looking … Read More
Claire is a photographic artist based in Cornwall. She creates small number limited edition artworks often printed on ultra thin aluminium or giclée prints on Hahnemühle fine art papers.
Inspired by Cornwall’s natural beauty and traditional industries, there is a growing portfolio of images of its rocks, waters, beaches, boats and harbours…but with a twist. It’s small details of their reflections, textures, colours, light, patterns that are captured to create fabulous original pieces of abstract art.
Claire continues to build a reputation for unique and exciting work that has sold in prestigious galleries including the Royal West of England Academy (RWA) in Bristol, the Falmouth Art Gallery in Falmouth and the Penwith Gallery in St Ives in Cornwall.
All the images are available to buy as artworks in limited editions of 5 or less. Some examples of finished artworks can be seen on this site along with details of the different finishes.
If you’d like to know more about Claire’s work please get in touch, it would be great to hear from you.

Last spring we went looking for creatures in rock pools on a beach near where we live in Cornwall. It’s something we do fairly often especially when we have young family or friends visiting. There’s always something interesting to be … Read More
This is one of my favourite images. It’s a close-up detail of a small rock in a farmer’s field-boundary wall alongside the South West Coast Path on The Lizard peninsula in Cornwall. It’s a walk I’ve done often, in every … Read More
Looking at intimate details in boatyards I often see “found landscapes” where the colours and marks resemble a seascape, landscape or river view. I set myself a challenge, to look for the bigger picture rather than at a detailed scene … Read More
One of my favourite places to look for images is a working harbour and Newlyn, in the far west of Cornwall, has been a rich source over the years. At the beginning it was often the reflections of the brightly … Read More
There are other stories I’ve written about images found at Poltesco on the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall. One was about the sand (Sand is just sand-coloured, right?) and one about the pebbles (Poltesco pebbles, imaginitive title that one!) but this … Read More
As I walked along the pontoon there was a pile of small, dark, irregular pieces of…what? I had no idea. On closer inspection it was fragments of corroded, rusted metal. There’s often lots of maintenance work going on at Newlyn … Read More
