Clare Wake
I have been painting since childhood. I trained at the Slade School of Fine Art where I graduated in painting in 1983. Since then I have painted, exhibited and taught. I am a keen violinist which feeds my obsessional concern over abstract compositional elements of balance, dynamics, colour, surface texture and tonal values. These are incorporated into figurative and abstract images of landscapes, architecture and flowers.
