La neige semble crisser sous nos pas, son blanc-bleu éclate sous un ciel d'encre d'un bleu nuit profond. Parmi la multitude d'étoiles semées par delà les hauts sommets glacés, celle du berger se distingue, sur la gauche de la composition, comme défiant l'éclat de la lune, du côté opposé. C'est la soirée de Noël. On devine les réunions familiales autour d'un modeste repas pour l'occasion, derrière les petites fenêtres faiblement éclairées des chalets rustiques d'un petit village de montagne, tout là-bas, au col qui joint ses deux collines anesthésiées par l'épais manteau. Quelques traces du passage des hommes et de leur progéniture, dans la journée, en opposition à cette belle immensité sauvage, dépourvue de toute vie humaine la nuit: des traces de ski qui forment un chemin qui conduit au hameau, un bonhomme de neige abandonné à sa solitude.

Self-taught, I immerse my imagination, my knives and brushes in the light and colors of my beautiful Mediterranean region, then on all the supports I find: canvases, cardboard, walls, and...mailboxes!
I mainly use acrylic for the spontaneity and lack of meticulousness it allows. And yet my inclination towards impulsive gestures, to “batchwork” as we say back home, is matched only by the meticulousness and even the obsessiveness of the details that I can inject into a painting. Thus, flat areas and pointillism sometimes embrace each other on the same canvas, or challenge each other from one painting to another.
The key words that animate my art: light, living colors, movement, and the search for new sensations.
It is not one, but two brushstrokes that define my work. Two identities, two artists: Claire V, the naive painter of mailboxes, endless fields of flowers and spring that sings. Then Claire Morand, a little more mature, who entrusts her creative instinct to the call of movement in a more modern art, expressed in the jump of skiers, in crazy races of sailboats in the wind.
There is no question of erasing one for the benefit of the other. The child and the adult coexist and collaborate in my inspiration as in life.
Solo and collective exhibitions in the PACA region and in Monaco.
