Good morning, friends! I have unapologetically happy, fun colors for you to start your day with: derivatives of the three primary colors (red, yellow and blue), Happy Sunny Daze (36 x 60”) breathes joy into her immediate surroundings! Residing in my STAYCATION series (link in bio), I hope she lifts you up like she does me… have a super duper day! 🧡❤️💜💙 #ClaireDesjardins #Staycation #StaycationSeries #PrimaryColors #RedYellowBlue #Blue #Yellow #Magenta (at Gore (Québec)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPNp4NTJyut/?utm_medium=tumblr

She sat quietly in the corner of my studio, waiting for me while I focussed my energy on my Halcyon paintings. When I contained that spurt of creative rush, I turned to the making of this airy piece: Pleased with Myself (48 x 72”). She floats and I can feel my heart rate slow down as I gaze at her smooth shapes, in all of her freshness. Despite her size, she is light, and she calms me. She is part of my STAYCATION series (link in bio). Have a relaxing day. Love you. 🧡❤️💜💙 #ClaireDesjardins #Staycation #StaycationSeries #Blue #BlueGray #Pink #Chartreuse #BuyArtOnline #PaintingForSale (at Gore (Québec)) https://www.instagram.com/p/COP39KppN_J/?igshid=1mi3spd3sywky

I snuck this skinny, tall painting in. Sometimes you just need a long, tall splash of color. I called her Smoke Rises (36 x 12”), and she is in my STAYCATION series (link in bio). Pretty colors floating upwards in a swirl... have a pleasant day! 🧡❤️💜💙 #ClaireDesjardins #PastelColors #Staycation #StaycationSeries #BuyArtOnline #SwirlsOfColor #Pastel (at Gore (Québec)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN7W1_-p2kZ/?igshid=1g8r5l4lwq650

While nobody was looking, I painted this happy piece, A Playground (48 x 48”). There is so much light-hearted joy in my painting that I think it might just explode happiness... beware! Lol! She’s in my STAYCATION series. She’s got a lovely personality. Have a great afternoon and evening!

This is the perfect sunny afternoon to introduce you to the colors of Blue Skies and Sunshine 01! (Pssst! Number 02 is online too, swipe sideways to see the companion pieces together!). She is now posted in my HOLIDAY EVERYDAY series (link in bio). Spin a little joy into your evening! Ta ta for now! 🧡❤️💜💙 #ClaireDesjardins #StaycationSeries #Staycation #ColorsOfTheRainbow #Purple #Blue #Orange #Red (at Gore (Québec)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNYUM9NJ9WP/?igshid=1rhf8lo6v5dj6

Springtime Fresh reminds me of a Granny Smith apple 🍏: tart and sweet, and bursting with flavour! She is in my STAYCATION series on my website (link in bio), and she’s just waiting for her forever home! Chartreuse acrylic paint painted on a wood panel (which I painted white on the front, but left the edges natural wood). Scroll sideways to see... I LOVE this happy, optimistic little painting! Have a great day!! 🧡❤️💜💙 #ClaireDesjardins #StaycationSeries #Staycation #Green #ChartreuseGreen #GrannySmithGreen #FreshArtwork #FreshOffTheEasel #BuyArtOnline #Chartreuse (at Gore (Québec)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNH3egipqYX/?igshid=44rpoe51pekj

I’m into verticals, right now. Just photographing this big beauty, “I Dream of Venice” (80 x 48”). Will have it on my website in my STAYCATION series, over the course of the next few days, but in the meantime, if anyone is interested, you know where to find me... message me with any inquiries! Have yourself a dreamy afternoon. Love you! 🧡❤️💜💙 #ClaireDesjardins #Staycation #StaycationSeries #LargeFormatPainting #BuyArtOnline #AbstractPaintingForSale #Swirls #SwirlsOfBlue #SwirlsOfColor (at Gore (Québec)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM7wgfhppgp/?igshid=2onsckxu8liz
