Artists I Fancy : Claudia Tremblay
Do you love artwork that honors women and womanhood? Lovely portraits of women, mother-and-daughter or mother-and-child, sisters, young girls, mature women, etc.?
If so then you will love paintings by Claudia Tremblay.
If so then you will love paintings by Claudia Tremblay.
She is a self-taught artist who began her career painting Mayan women when she worked for an NGO in Guatemala. Her inspiration is derived from the “beauty, serenity, colours, and sense of mystery that pervades Guatemala”. Her paintings “evoke a sense of peace, harmony, and a certain melancholy” and she “imbues scenes of everyday life with a dream-like quality”. (Source for quotes)
Ms. Tremblay has an official website ~ claudiatremblay.com ~ and over 600 pieces of her paintings and illustrations are for sale via her Etsy shop.
It is impossible for me to pick a favorite piece. All of her work is captivating, bewitching even. Let's just say these caught my eye.
