Also, we have launched a new website and brochure called "Claremont Today". (

The importance of recognizing and experiencing current events is that they become our future history . Claremont Heritage is documenting our "future history" now so that future generations will be able to experience it as well.

About Corinne -
My work explores commonalities across disparate artistic movements. My practice is founded in the bold post-modernism of the 1980's that painted my earliest memories. The structure of this aesthetic was then architected by the Art Deco influences of my native hometown, Los Angeles. This composition was further refined by travels and tenure in Asia, studying the craftsmanship and cultural roots of humankind in Indonesia's antiquity and textiles. These elements are woven together by an imagination rooted in the idea that creation and expression have always been and will continue to be shaped by a mystical connection between humanity and the cosmos.
With this as a foundation, my work lives in many mediums. Shaping paint, resin, walls, and wildlife, I carry my philosophy of patience, quality, and timelessness into my every aspect of my artistic output.
