Description
Elements of Nature: Equines and Still Lifes by Clarice Smith features 20 paintings that exquisitely articulate Clarice Smithâs graceful vision of the natural world.
Embodying both the serenity and excitement of nature, her oeuvre includes floral still-lifes reminiscent of the 17th-century masters as well as exhilarating equestrian scenes.
Inspired by Whistler, Manet, and Sargent, Smithâs paintings evoke a sense of wonder at the power, grace, and majestic elements of nature.
A native of Washington, DC, Smith has painted professionally for over 35 years. She has hosted numerous solo exhibitions in prestigious galleries in the U.S., London, Paris, Zurich, Maastricht and Jerusalem.
