    Besides loving Clay and his wife:), Besides knowing Clay is one of the kindness people I know, handsome too.
    He is my favorite (not to hurt anyone’s feelings) artist in this town. I would say east coast, even the entire US! Except my knowledge of art is not that expansive. But for me Clay’s art is simply amazing! Has depth, movement, color and seems to be a storyteller (think that comes from the artist & his wonderful use of layering). These paintings are a MUST see to believe, honestly. Swear on my childrens’lives ( that is by far the biggest swear I make & use with GREAT CARE).
    This is art you will NEVER become bored with EVER, would be impossible. GO SEE CLAY’S paintings, promise you will not be disappointed!
