Claire Waltier MacGillivray is a painter living and working in Cheshire. She studied her degree in Fine Art – Painting at Maidstone College of Art. Her approach to painting begins with direct observation, studying the colour, light and structure of flowers through the medium of watercolour. As the work progresses a more intuitive approach comes into play responding to the colour and shapes on the paper and arriving at a playfully balanced composition.

Claire has worked with patients at Horatio's garden, Midlands for the past four years, providing watercolour workshops for patients. She says: “When the opportunity arose for me to be artist in residence at Horatio’s Garden Midlands I couldn’t have anticipated how enriching and rewarding working with the patients would be and how the garden and the activities provided by the charity contribute to the patients' wellbeing and recovery in such a positive way.”
