Clara Berta
The Art of Wellness
My paintings can transform a home or office into a Zen-like environment where you can quiet a cluttered mind, feel a sense of peace and tranquility, and enjoy beauty every day. I feel blessed to be able to create that kind of soothing atmosphere for others and it makes my heart soar with gratitude.
“Clara Berta’s Minimalism series is the perfect antidote to the upsetting times we live in today. It provides a respite from the storm; one can relax just by enjoying the organic beauty of her paintings.”— Dale Youngman, Art Curator
The Art of Minimalism
My Minimalism series with flowing, organic imagery surrounded by plentiful white-space is partially inspired by the simplicity of the “less is more” philosophy of renowned twentieth-century German architect, Mies van der Rohe. But more than that, it is a personal expression of my desire to explore art as a healing tool. This series, which I believe is my strongest and most personal to date, has transformed me. I have learned about patience and acceptance, how to let go, and how to slow down.
The Art of Healing
I truly became an artist after a very challenging period of loss when art saved my life. I initially discovered my love of painting during my studies in Psychology from Antioch University. At first, art was simply a creative outlet which was set aside when I got married. However, after I lost my husband, I returned to painting as a form of therapy. The experience was so healing and rewarding that I dedicated myself to art full-time, and even began teaching.
