Claudia True's art is a visual feast of color and fun!  Her paintings are about loving life and about finding joy in our short time here on earth.

Painting has become Claudia's passion.  Her art tends to focus on simplified subjects that get a fun and sometimes whimsical or lyrical twist through color and line work.  At this stage of her life, she appreciates the gift of a smile and she shares that through her art. 

Claudia's past career included extensive travel as a geologist and manager in the energy industry. Her art is informed by time spent outdoors in the spectacular southwestern United States - learning from the earth and connecting with its unspoiled beauty. Travels in "primitive" areas of Mexico, Indonesia and Australia have given a deep appreciation for the diversity and the art of these "simple" cultures.  Her colors have traditionally been influenced by the bold tropical and Latino cultures.  Fun and strong design elements have been trademarks of Claudia's art.  Now Claudia is experimenting with a softer approach in style using oils as well as acrylics – still strong in color and energy!  

People often describe Claudia's works as "fun and happy."  Children (of all ages!) especially delight in the color and fun of her pieces.

Claudia and her husband recently moved to Kansas City after living in California.  Her personal motto is "Life's an Adventure!"  This Kansas living is another fun part of that adventure.
