Clarice Smith is
described by critics as an intriguing and enigmatic artist. Belonging to no
school, yet clearly influenced by several traditions, she creates a world
through paint that is at the same time tangible and distant; familiar yet
disquieting. Her oeuvre includes portraits, florals, landscapes, still-lifes
and horses painted with ease, yet a convincing reality and an ambience unique
to a particular place. Both in technique and mood, her paintings share little
with the strict photo-realists who are her contemporaries but are rather linked
to earlier painters who are her inspiration. She has had numerous solo
exhibitions in prestigious galleries in the United States and abroad including
an exhibit at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in 2011. She is represented by the Gerald Peters
Gallery in New York City. See more of
