Biography
Born in 1952. Acquired an BA Fine Art Degree in Cardiff University of Wales. Listed in the Dictionary of Artists in Wales.
“Claire Griffith’s work is sensitive and elegiac in nature, showing her personal response to the environment from which she draws her work, she finds revelation in the seemingly ordinary, such as domestic scenes – landscape and portraiture. The work also reflects the nature and history of the post industrial Welsh valleys in which she lives and works. In her paintings, Claire employs an expressive linear style, derived from her knowledge and use of print making, drawings and graphic skills and are central to her work as is the development and change inherent in the drawing process which is laid bare, not hidden within the works” – review of work by Peter Bushel.
Artist Statement
"Some of this body of work is from a walk “Walk a mile in my shoes” along the coastal path of south Wales from Chepstow to Porthcawl to the Elvis Festival. Arriving at the festival was a feast for eyes and senses – this inspired the work. I still go every year. Porthcawl was the destination of the minors fortnight where they would all go for their holidays in the 1960s."
