Clara Berta Drawings and Watercolor Paintings

Hungarian, b. 1963
Clara Berta is a Hungarian-American contemporary abstract painter based in Los Angeles, California, USA. She has been practicing art since 2000 and has become known for her large-scale paintings that embody the vibrancy and tranquility of the natural world through her use of organic forms and layering of harmonious colors. Clara Berta began her career as an artist after a very challenging period of loss. She discovered her passion for art while she was completing her studies in Psychology from Antioch University in Marina del Rey, CA. After the death of her husband, she returned to painting as a form of therapy. Berta’s paintings explore themes such as the ebb and flow of memory, the significance of personal heritage, the passing of physical time, desire, grief, and love. Her Hungarian heritage pushes through in the joyful use of traditional clothing colors and the predominant theme of water and its natural healing properties. Often including reminders of her travels, her abstract works express unexpected sequences of patterns as well as distortion of perspectives and subconscious spaces. Manipulating the canvas with mixed media and acrylic paint, Berta will work and re-work her canvas’ dimensions. Through her creative practice, she has found healing. Clara Berta’s dynamic and textural abstract works have been exhibited at Artspace Warehouse Los Angeles and collected worldwide, including in Europe, China, Dubai, and notably at the Chiba City Museum of Art in Japan. Her work has been featured in high-profile film and television productions on prominent networks such as Disney, 20th Century Fox, ABC, and CBS.
