clarice beckett




Clarice Beckett is an Australian landscape painter who died in 1935. I love the mood and magic in her paintings. Like many woman painters she fitted her work around her domestic life, she never left home and spent her last years nursing sick parents before dying young herself of pneumonia.

    I have to research Clarice Beckett for a school art project and I just LOVE the style of her art. She seems like a lovely person too.
