What I do...
My name is Claire Witz. I'm an artist and illustrator from Tunbridge Wells and I paint unique, tailor-made personalised canvases, wooden signs and personalised wooden hearts and plaques in English and Arabic. I work with my clients to design them to mark special occasions, complement specific themes and colours or coordinate with e.g. fabrics, and become treasured keepsakes and family heirlooms. I also undertake commercial illustrations and paint exclusive ranges for other companies, including The Arabian Tent Company, Hushabye Photography and Reellove Films.
I undertake most of my work on commission but you can buy some of my favourites at the click of a button here on my site. If you have something more specific in mind please just drop me a line.
As the name says, I create all of my work with love, pride and attention to detail. I use lovely chunky canvases and high quality paints and design my pieces carefully so that they'll be treasured in the years to come.
You can see lots of my work in my galleries, and buy certain wooden hearts and personalised canvases online. However, if you'd like something different or would like to discuss your ideas in more depth, please just contact me.
As I make almost everything specially to order, I am always very happy to discuss something either a little, or completely different. Please take a look at my galleries for inspiration.
I also organise and chair the Tunbridge Wells Mums in Business (TW MIBs) group.
