Never give up! How many times did you hear these words?
Now I'm looking at Clara's artwork named "Never Give Up," which reminds me of many times I thought about giving up. I'm so grateful I didn't!

In this one, you can see something not so familiar to Clara's artworks, at least until now: the background is built with so many lines in different colors that flyes in different directions. It is a big mess, but suddenly in the middle of all this, you have big eyes looking at you and a smile blu glittery mouth that says: Never give up!



It reminds me of many times when Clara didn't give up: Clara was around three years old and couldn't walk yet. I was alone with her for the night. At that time, we lived in a house with a high ceiling and didn't have a heater. It was a cold night. Since Clara couldn't walk, we cut the legs of the bed to make it shorter, so she could move quickly around.

Clara decided she would sleep with me that night. But I was trying to educate her to sleep in her bed. To make a long story short, Clara was all night crawling in the cold floor and dark room to come to my bed. When she arrived, I would take her and say: Clara, we have an agreement; you need to sleep in your bed.

So I would bring her back to her bed, and she started again on the same path until the morning. On one side, my heart was breaking, I felt so guilty, but on the other, I was so proud of her.



As she did that night, she does like this to conquer everything she wants. This painting is so representative of Clara's soul. When things can become confusing and overwhelming, we can every day choose to have a smile and don't give up.

Each one of us has different challenges. Clara is getting to know hers and how life can be tricky when you have a disability as she has. Art came into her life to reduce the communication gap between others and herself. Painting is her happy place, where she can be 100% herself!

Look at your life and open your glittery mouth, smiling and choosing not to give up, just for today!

Do you want to know the story behind the material:

We worry for the planet, and we were concerned about bringing all the paintings to Miami and how we could decrease the environmental impact.
Clara's paintings are huge, creating a massive "waste" in packaging and shipping. Carlo found a suitable material (non-woven fabric) for the support that is rollable.
We shared with Clara this new material solution, and she loved it. Listen to what she said:
"This new material my dad found is lovely to create because I can have much more freedom than the framed canvas, where I'm limited to the canvas's size and structure.
Using a raw material is much more connected with my creativity and will to express myself than the framed canvas.
My collectors will have a blast hanging my raw version creating a versatile environment that expresses my essence: be different, be yourself."

All the artworks are shipped with a certificate of authenticity. 

 

SPOTTED IN

Hi, I’m Clara.

I had a stroke inside my mom’s belly, so I can’t speak, read, or write—but I understand three languages and use art to share my feelings with the world.

I started painting when I was 11, just for fun. Then I read a book about Frida Kahlo and everything changed. She became my muse, and I decided to follow her steps. At 12, I had my first art exhibition—and never stopped.

Since then, I’ve had shows on three continents, became one of the official artists for the 2026 Olympic Games, and was named a Forbes Game Changer. Today, I’m also leading The Inclusion Matters Movement—to make sure everyone feels seen, valued, and loved just as they are.

FAQ

  • I’m Clara Woods—an artist, entrepreneur, and game-changer on a mission to inspire. I was born a a stroke in my mom’s womb, which left me unable to speak, read, or write. But that hasn’t stopped me! I understand three languages and found my voice through art. My bold, colorful paintings reflect my resilience, passion, and determination to share my story with the world.

    When I was just 12, I held my first exhibition in Florence, Italy. My mom, Betina, believed in my dream, and together we built Clara Woods Collection, turning my passion for art into a thriving business. I became an entrepreneur, showing that creativity and ambition have no limits—no matter your age or abilities. My mom even sold her own successful company to focus on my career, and our bond is at the heart of everything we’ve achieved.

    Today, I’ve hosted over 30 exhibitions across three continents, sold more than 800 original artworks, and built an amazing global community of over 1.5 million followers. I was honored to be named an Internet Gamechanger by Forbes and Facebook for the positive impact I’ve made on inclusion and creativity.

    Through my work, I lead The Inclusion Matters Movement, advocating for diversity and showing that being different is a superpower. My story is about resilience, love, and dreaming big. Explore my art and see the world through my eyes—you might just feel inspired!
