Clara paints a watercolour study at the end of most working days, a way of loosening her hand after hours on larger canvases. Afternoon Study is one of the few she has chosen to release, with its glowing washes of amber and rust.

The Story
Inspiration & process
About the Artist
Clara Villanueva
Clara paints the human figure as gesture and memory — loose, tender compositions in earth tones and watercolour that hover between portrait and abstraction.
A figure is never just a body. It is a gesture someone made once, and that I am trying to remember.

Collector Care
Delivery, framing & authenticity
Every work leaves the gallery inspected, documented and insured. Our team is happy to advise on scale, hanging height and framing before you buy.
Shipping & delivery
Originals are wrapped in acid-free tissue, crated and shipped fully insured. Metro Manila deliveries arrive within 3–5 working days, with white-glove hanging available on request. Provincial deliveries take 5–10 working days. Prints ship rolled in archival tubes or framed and boxed.
Certificate of authenticity
Each work is accompanied by a certificate signed by the artist and countersigned by the gallery, recording the title, medium, dimensions, year and, for editions, the edition number.
Framing & care
Originals are supplied ready to hang on gallery-depth stretchers. Custom framing in natural oak, black or gold leaf can be arranged on request. Hang away from direct sunlight and humidity, and dust gently with a dry, soft brush.
Returns & private viewings
If a work is not right for your space, contact us within 7 days of delivery to arrange a return. Prefer to see it in person first? Book a private viewing at the gallery.
