Her matte but saturated colors along with\u00a0those\u00a0crackle textures and scratches have become identifying characteristics of her style. So when I saw this post in a Facebook group with this work in progress piece, I was surprised to see it was posted by Claire. The contemporary shapes and brilliant colors are a departure from her usual approach, but what a brilliant exploration it is.<\/p>\n<p>Claire says this was inspired by Bollywood films, which was an easy an instant connection for me. Those Indian fabrics and decor are so luscious in color, and Claire&#8217;s interpretation is a beautiful collaboration of those colors and her penchant for heavy texture.<\/p>\n<p>Although I can&#8217;t point you to the source of this image, you can see more of Claire&#8217;s beautiful work on her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/stillpointworks\/\" target=\"_blank\">Flickr photostream<\/a> and in her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop\/stillpointworks?ref=profile_shopname\" target=\"_blank\">Etsy shop<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Inspirational Challenge of the Day: <\/strong>Relax and watch a movie or show where the scenery, atmosphere, or fashion has a very particular look. Find colors, textures, forms, or imagery that inspires you and design or create your next piece based on this inspiration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"text-align: center;\">_________________________________________<\/p>\n<p class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"likethisblog\">Like this blog?
