Clare Duguid is an artist based in Bradford on Avon, Wiltshire, who draws inspiration from the beauty of the British countryside and the ever-changing landscape surrounding her studio. Through her paintings and drawings, Clare creates atmospheric scenes and intimate portraits of nature that evoke a sense of calm and reflection.
Working mainly with oils, ink, and charcoal, Clare uses a soft, muted colour palette that brings out feelings of nostalgia and solitude. Her landscapes often feature sweeping skies, dense forests, and twisting trees reaching toward the light, offering viewers the chance to lose themselves in the artwork and connect with nature in a quiet, personal way. Each piece reflects Clare's own relationship with the natural world, capturing both its peace and its drama.
Clare's goal is to create art that allows viewers to step away from everyday life and into a space where they can simply pause and breathe. She aims for her work to provide an escape—a place where the mind can wander and find solace in the stillness of nature.
Her work can be found in galleries, exhibitions, and art fairs, as well as online, where she connects with collectors both in the UK and around the world. Through each piece, Clare hopes to share her deep love for the landscapes that continue to inspire her.
