About

Claire O’Flaherty graduated from the Royal College of Art in London with a masters degree in Fine Art.

Nature and the patterns within it, shape and form are the inspiration for her work and are evident in the three aspects that define her work; Fine Art, Crafts and Collectables. The Fine Art discipline of her practice spans painting, drawing and printmaking including signed limited edition etchings, silkscreen prints and lithographs. The Crafts category includes unique pieces such as hand painted candles, hand sewn hot water bottle covers, coat hangers and cooking aprons, tapestries and bags. The Collectables area exhibits items and objects that Claire finds special and inspirational.

Claire has exhibited in London and Europe and her works are included in private collections.
