My name is Clara Rodriguez and was born in Madrid, where I've lived all my life.

In 2004 I discovered my artistic vocation through an anti-stress therapy. I am a self-taught painter that the only attempt is to express in my work my inner reality, my feelings, my experiences, in short, my whole universe through the colors of life.

In my work I try to translate a message of optimism in life and people, so in my palette are the bright and cheerful colors I can find.

I hope that through these pictures, you can feel, as I feel the joy of living.
