Claudia Valsells Spain, b. 1969

Clàudia is an artist who specializes in colour.

A multidisciplinary creator, she discovered painting through mural painting. Based on

her reflections as an artist and her experience in trend prediction and mural painting in

interior design and architecture, she brings to all her work a distinctive, harmonious,

rhythmic and sensitive approach, with colour as a primary tool.

Aware of the emotional impact of colour and its infinite wealth of nuances, she

develops and defines colour ranges and colour harmonies, abstracting colour from

matter and any other artifice and seeking in the white of the canvas her only ally. A selftaught

painter, in 1992 she went to study mural painting at the Institut Supérieur de

Peinture Van Der Kelen et Logelain in Brussels, Belgium. On her return from Brussels,

she worked on commissions and for architects, on projects of diVerent scales.

Soon she founded her own company, under the name of ‘arts&claus’, specializing in

painting and colour applied to architecture and interior design. For 20 years she worked

on projects in Spain and abroad. Her role was to convey the value of colour and its

texture in the decoration of interior spaces working closely with professionals in the

fields of art, design, and architecture.

She also produced and edited two colour cards of her own, with more than 200

references, which have been used as colour communication tools by Spain’s best

architects. Currently she combines her activity as an artist with colour consulting and

colour prescription in the areas of interior design and architecture.
