Wendy Clayton - Pennies for your Thoughts

30"H x 24"W Mixed media. 3D abstract. Wendy was born and raised in Holliston, MA, the daughter of a graphic artist. Her lifelong interest in color and visual expression has led her on a journey to many schools of thought and design. She studied graphic design at Massachusetts College of Art and the Portland School of Art in Maine. For a number of years she lived in Europe pursuing her interest in fashion design, where she attended the Paris American Academy in France. Clothes-making would later evolve into two-dimensional pictures, employing pastels, fabrics, thread and found objects. After a 12 year hiatus from fabric artwork she became an interior designer and a feng shui practitioner. Her new artwork has emerged in the form of paintings where her love of color and textures is apparent.
