Claire Burke

Claire Burke is a predominantly abstract painter. She says: “I use acrylic paint for its versatility and the range of outcomes I can achieve. I paint individual artworks occasionally, while experimenting, but enjoy working on a pair, group or series especially when I’ve just tapped into something new and exciting.

Increasingly, I invite serendipity into my pieces because I’m always drawn to work that looks loose, unplanned, and expressive: it brings a piece alive to me and excites me to know I can’t replicate an exact outcome even adopting the same materials or methods.
