CLAIRE TELLSTROM

I tend to work with acrylics and oftentimes oils as well. I like to add mixed media elements to my pieces to make them more detailed and incorporate more texture. Most of my subject matter has to do with the human figure and face as emotions and movement intrigued me. Art is my way of channeling my inner thoughts into pictures and capturing them within faces with vivid colors. I try to make my art as personal as possible by channeling any and every emotion I am feeling into a piece while I am creating it. As a result, I tend to lean towards very colorful pallets in my paints as they are very expressive. I am also a huge fan of texture and explore how far I can push a medium.
