Warrior Soul: Book Released Today!

The third book in the Warrior series has been released just in time for the holidays! This journal is perfect for the artist in your life. I am very happy to contribute to the warrior book as an artist again, and thankful for my friendships with Laura Probert (author), Atousa Raissyan (artist/designer), and Jeanette MacDonald (artist). There are several new contributors (29 in total) to the warrior project that you will see in this new book!

Just getting into the creative habit again and doing daily paintings on these little 10 x 10 canvases! I’m working on large canvases in between these, taking the time to let new work emerge.

Painting I

The Giving Tree | Mary Claire | 2015 | Acrylic on canvas | 10 x 10 x 1.5″ |  SOLD

*Click the painting above to buy directly from artist.

Inspiration

“Judge tenderly, if you must. There is usually a side you have not heard, a story you know nothing about, and a battle waged that you are not having to fight.”
-Traci Lea LaRussa

Painting II

Sparks | Mary Claire | 2015 | Acrylic on canvas | 10 x 10 x 1.5″

*Click the painting above to buy directly from artist.

Inspiration

“You have no control over how your story begins and ends. But by now, you should know that all things have an ending. Every spark returns to darkness. Every sound returns to silence. Every flower returns to sleep with the earth. The journey of the sun and moon is predictable. But yours, is your ultimate art.”
-Suzy Kassem
