“A painting is at its best when you see the soul of the artist and the soul of the subject in one. They both come through, and they both become immortalized.”
—Voltaire
Bio
Born in Montevideo, Uruguay, and now based in Fort Lauderdale, USA, Claudia is an artist whose work vibrates with energy, color, and emotion. From an early age, she was deeply attuned to the world of color and form, instinctively understanding the relationships between shapes and hues. This innate talent blossomed over time, evolving into a refined, visionary approach to art.
Claudia is celebrated for her mastery in Mixed Media, specializing in the use of alcohol-based inks. Her signature portraits—often bold, expressive, and full of life—are created with a fluidity that mirrors the dynamic nature of the inks themselves. Her art is a celebration of the sensory experience, capturing the essence of her subjects with vibrant backgrounds that amplify the figures, giving them an almost otherworldly presence.
Her works have been featured in numerous prestigious exhibitions and have earned acclaim for their ability to command attention and evoke emotion. Each piece is not only a visual experience but a direct channel to Claudia's personal connection with the world around her.
Artistic Statement
For me, art is about seeing the world in a way that words cannot quite capture. When I look at the world, I don’t just see things—I see colors, fluid motions, and the subtle connections between all living things. Colors speak to me, and through my art, I translate their language into a visual form. My paintings are my voice.
I am often drawn to the fluidity and depth of alcohol-based inks, which allow me to create intense, spontaneous bursts of color that mirror the energy and complexity of life. Each portrait I create is more than just a representation—it's an expression of feeling, an exploration of the spaces between light and shadow, and a celebration of individuality.
Though every piece is unique, my work consistently explores the interplay of vibrant backgrounds with colorful, lifelike depictions of my subjects. I’m not interested in making the ordinary look ordinary. I want to take what is familiar and turn it into something extraordinary, something that pulls you in, challenges your perspective, and sparks a deeper emotional response. Through my art, I invite viewers to experience the world not just as it is, but as it could be—alive, vivid, and full of possibility.
