AQUATIC GYMNASTIC Acrylic & Charcoal on Wood Panel | 18" × 24"

The body knows things the mind has to learn.

A figure arches and reaches against a ground of pool-blue tile — the grid behind her as precise and ordered as she is fluid and instinctive. Her form is rendered in charcoal and acrylic, the marks building a body that is simultaneously sculptural and completely in motion — arms reaching, torso twisting, the whole composition caught in that suspended moment between effort and grace where athletic movement becomes something closer to art.

Red dots scatter across the tile like droplets of water caught mid-flight or the aftermath of something moving very fast through very still air. The teal of a pool surface glows at the lower edge. The blue above is the particular blue of an indoor aquatic centre — institutional, cool, the blue of chlorine and concentration and bodies doing extraordinary things.

The wood panel ground gives the charcoal marks a quality they couldn't find on canvas — a slight resistance, a texture that makes each line feel considered even when it was made quickly. Which is the nature of drawing a body in motion. You have to be fast and certain simultaneously.

Aquatic Gymnastic is for the collector who appreciates the figure, who understands that sport and art share more than they acknowledge and who wants something genuinely dynamic on their wall.

FAQ

Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We offer free shipping on most works, with shipping costs (when applicable) never exceeding 10% of the piece's price. Large canvases ship rolled in a professional tube; oversized works requiring special packaging may be an exception, and we're happy to provide a quote. International collectors are responsible for any duties and taxes upon arrival.

Can I receive my painting already stretched and framed?

Large works ship rolled by default for safety in transit. If you'd prefer your piece delivered already on stretcher bars, contact us before purchasing for a separate shipping quote at your own expense. If you're interested in framing, reach out to claire@clairepriceartist.com to discuss your vision — we're happy to provide quotes and mockups to help you visualize the finished piece.

What if I'm not happy with my purchase?

Returns are accepted within 30 days of receiving the work. Choosing an artwork is a deeply personal experience, and we'll do our best to help place the right piece in your home — if something isn't right, contact us immediately and we'll try to facilitate an exchange or, if necessary, a refund. For returns, the client is responsible for the cost of shipping and insuring the piece back to us; once it arrives safely, a full refund is issued minus shipping and related expenses.

Is each piece truly one of a kind?

Yes — every original is a unique, one-of-one work, signed by the artist on the front and/or back, and shipped with a certificate of authenticity establishing provenance. The artist retains all copyright to the image, and reserves the right to reproduce it as prints or use it in future projects, at her discretion.

Do you take custom commissions?

Occasionally, by inquiry. Commission pricing is calculated at $4.50 per square inch, with a 50% non-refundable deposit required to begin. Contact us to discuss your piece and confirm availability.
