Claudette
Downs' - paintings have won numerous awards and grace private and public collections from coast to coast. Claudette maintains a studio in Alexandria, VA where she is happily fulfilling her lifetime ambition of creating fine art. A member of the Loft Gallery since 2004, Claudette exhibits widely in juried shows throughout the Washington Metropolitan area. Claudette creates her colorful light-filled renderings primarily in acrylic and oil. She enjoys painting a wide variety of subjects ranging from landscapes, animals, portraits, and angels to abstracts! She brings her deeply-felt spiritual nature to her art, resulting in peaceful images that soothe and delight. Largely self-taught and an admirer of the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists, Claudette has trained with well-known artists at workshops around the country. She also studies at The Art League School and Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA.)
In addition to creating and studying fine art, Claudette offers private art instruction to adults and children. She holds advanced degrees in education from Rutgers University and is well equipped to guide others with her broad mastery of subject matter and styles.
