Abstractions ~ Art for the Soul ~ - Your Partner in Creative Expression

Meet Claire Clifton – “That Crazy Paint Throw Lady” with a Seriously Creative Side 

If you’ve ever wanted to hurl paint at a canvas just to see what happens – you’re in the right place. Hi my name is Claire Clifton from Abstractions art for the Soul, affectionately known as That Crazy Paint Throw Lady, and not your average art facilitator! I am an abstract artist, creative guide, and believer that art isn’t just about what you make – it’s about what you discover along the way.

I offer an irresistible menu of creative experiences, each designed to help you loosen up, connect with yourself, and maybe even find a new passion:

Experience Creativity with Abstractions ~ Art for the Soul ~

For me, art is never just about the finished piece. It’s an experience – a mirror to parts of yourself you might not have seen before. A way to tap into what you truly yearn for, like a map to your inner world.

Paint Throws are perfect for small groups of up to 4 people, while most other sessions can accommodate up to 15 participants – and some experiences can even come to your own venue.

So, if you’ve ever longed to explore your creative side, build a mindful practice, or simply have a wildly fun and freeing time, I have the perfect session for you. And the best part? You’ll walk away with more than just artwork – you’ll carry home a piece of your own rediscovered self.

Current Workshops

PAINT THROW

Fun, freeing, and a little bit wild! Perfect for all ages, these sessions allow you to let go of perfection and splash your emotions onto the canvas. Suitable for up to 4 at a time. $65pp includes your masterpiece boxed to take home. Available most afternoons and weekends. No age limit!

My Story

My love of the abstract spans 30 years. I love the experience of playing with color, texture and movement.

The experience has always been more important to me than the finished artwork. In the experience of letting go of expectations comes a delicious release of outcomes and a freedom of expression.

I am a Breast Cancer survivor and attribute my mental health to the creative process of art expression.

More About Me

Behold the Son of God

My Art

Expect the unexpected! I revel in experimentation with color and texture and mixed media. I paint feelings and emotions giving licence for colors to merge, overlap, compete, or stand alone. Abstract art is a symphony, sometimes jazz or blues, sometimes classical and sometimes a solo. My instruments are colors and textures and I love to jam.
