BABY ZOE Acrylic on Canvas | 16" × 20" | 2023


This painting took two months to complete. Some paintings simply need that long.

Zoe's mother came to sit after meeting the artist at a soup kitchen — a small act of trust that became something much larger and much more lasting. She brought her baby. The artist brought everything she had.

What followed was two months of looking, of layering, of refusing to let this child be anything less than fully seen. Every fold of skin, every bright and curious eye, every tiny finger — rendered with a devotion that is visible in every square inch of the surface. Zoe sits held in her mother's arm against a bold zebra-stripe cloth, looking out at the world with the frank, unguarded openness of someone who has not yet learned to be anything other than completely present.

She is magnificent.

This is figurative painting as an act of witness. As a record that says — you were here, you were real, you mattered enough to be looked at this carefully. In a tradition that stretches back through centuries of portraiture, Baby Zoe takes her rightful place. Unhurried. Unflinching. Unforgettable.

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.
