I recently released the call for the Packard Group National Exhibition for 2021, and I am looking forward to curating the artwork on my website and creating the drive-in movie art reception. I will begin accepting submissions on February 15th, but the deadline is March 15th. Visit the "Art Calls" section on my website for details and how to submit your work to this national art for free. 

I am extremely excited to announce that I am a recipient of a grant from the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation! This prestigious honor will help me create new brodalisque paintings in the upcoming year. 

Brodalisque with Black Trousers is part of the Open Door XVI exhibition at Rosalux Gallery in Minneapolis, MN. Artist Russ White juried the exhibition, and my oil on canvas painting is one of 36 selected works of art. The entire exhibition is online at the Rosalux website, and there is a book.

Aaron Packard and I discuss the importance of failure as a step in the learning process on the Klaire and Aaron Show. We also confirm that art is hard, but it's okay. 

Aaron C. Packard created an awesome 360 photo of my studio. You can can scroll and zoom to see some of my Brodalisque paintings, oil portraits, Domestic Sarcasm dresses, and a Thunderdomesticity dress. If you're using a mobile device, rotate it horizontally for the best view.

Aaron C. Packard recently won Honorable Mention from the International Photography Awards for his Epically Masked series! We want you to participate by sharing your masked photos.

I was thrilled to be a guest on the Gal's Guide to the Galaxy podcast for the month of October. This was a fun way for me to share my research about abstract artist Hilma af Klint!

Please join me for a digital art reception with Ramsey County Historical Society on Thursday, October 8, 2020. This reception is for the Persistence exhibition, which features the portrait I created of Theresa Peyton. You can also view the exhibition in the RCHS Persistence: Continuing the Struggle for Suffrage and Equality, 1848-2020 digital exhibition. 

I had a wonderful time as a guest on the Miss Art World podcast! I immensely enjoyed discussing artwork with another artist I greatly admire.

On the latest episode of the Klaire and Aaron Show, we discuss the upcoming presidential election and how I developed the #voteforbidensomyfriendklairecanpainthispresidential campaign to help my friends have a lighthearted way to discuss politics.
