Clare Reilly has passionately pursued her love of painting since 1975.   In recent years she has completed many private commissions and her works have found their way into collections in Argentina, North America, Israel, Europe and Australia, as well as throughout New Zealand.

Clare’s works express an underlying connection with the natural environment, in particular an empathy with native birds combined with a celebration of the joyous aspects of life.


“Recently my works have focussed on issues such as the encroachment of human activity on the limited natural resources we have left, and the historical effects of settlement on the native land species found in my locality”.
