Ricordi, original
16x12" (40x30cm) - Ricordi means memories in Italian. Memories are what shape us. The colors we carry with us, the feelings that show up when we least expect them, the moments that made us who we are. Clara lives in her ricordi all the time. They fill her paintings, her excitement, the way she connects everything to a feeling or a taste or a person she loves. Memories aren't just the past; they're alive in us. How we keep shaping our lives with love, finding beauty in ordinary things, adding new colors as we go. Your ricordi are yours, but the way they live inside you and make you see beauty everywhere? That's something we all share. Hang this somewhere you'll see it and let it remind you that your memories matter. Keep collecting those moments. Keep finding the beauty. It all becomes part of you.
Postcards from Italy: Clara created this little original collection before packing our bags to Italy. You know that feeling when you're about to go back home? Something starts moving inside you before you even leave. Old memories. Stories your nonno used to tell get louder in your head. You remember smells, voices, the way light looked.
Being far from your roots is not easy. You grow, you build, you create somewhere else, but there is always a string pulling you back.
Watching Clara counting the days to this trip… her happiness is overwhleming, in the best way. Her heart is so pure! It’s so nice to see, and I’m learning so much from her. And this collection is about this feeling. About being happy, thankful, and noticing the beauty that is all around. Life is full of it. We just need to see.

"I picked up one of Clara’s original pieces a few months back, and it’s now proudly hanging in my bedroom. It’s the first thing I see when I wake up, and it instantly makes me feel loved and that I am enough. I know the saying is ‘money can’t buy happiness’, but in this case, it did, and that’s why I see Clara’s prices as a bargain, so much so that I’ve just bought two prints of her stunning flowers!"

Wonderful Work! Wonderful Artist! I recently bought a work from Clara, I was so overwhelmed when I received it. Now I look at it several times a da,y and it always makes me smile, a warm feeling of happiness inside. Thank you, Clara. You are a very talented artist and a warm and wonderful person. Big hug from Switzerland, Zurich

"Love my painting, love Clara and her family! I have loved the process of purchasing a painting from Clara. I was able to see the paintings I was interested in via FaceTime, get to talk to Clara, and learn some of the meanings behind her work. I feel like I’ve made dear friends in the process, but I absolutely love my painting! And look forward to adding to my collection. Shipping was done right, too, no issues at all!"
SPOTTED IN
Hi, I’m Clara.
Sometimes people tell me I shouldn’t dream so big. That because I can’t speak, read, or write, I should “stay quiet.” But I don’t want to stay quiet. I want to paint louder.
I had a stroke while I was still in my mom’s womb. The doctors told her my life would be a nightmare. But here I am — building my future.
Even though I can’t speak, read, or write, I understand three languages — English, Portuguese, and Italian. I guess my brain found its own way to communicate, just not the one doctors expected.
I’m writing this with the help of my mom (my business partner, my best friend, and my biggest cheerleader) and ChatGPT — and reading it with my text-to-speech app.
Painting became my language. It’s how I share everything I can’t say with words — my love, my anger, my hope, and my joy. Because even if my voice sounds different, I want you to hear me.
