Clare Thatcher is an artist who draws and a painter who uses drawing as a primary means of expression. Clare continues to be absorbed by the idea of liminal spaces in landscape. The locations she chooses and the focus of her attention is highly selective, personal and resonant of individual landscape features and associated thoughts, emotions and reflections. Transition and consequences of perpetual flux are referenced within her oil paintings. Clare’s search for the exact colour and sensation of place remains central to the development of her practice.
