Clay paintings

Before ordering a clay painting, please take a moment to read this:

Clay naturally shrinks as it dries because it contains water. As the water evaporates, the clay contracts, leading to surface cracking—sometimes more, sometimes less. This is part of the unique character and texture of clay paintings.

Due to their heavily textured base, clay paintings are shipped as a whole piece.

You can order them with or without frames. The frames are sourced from a local framing shop here in Oulu, Finland. If you choose to order without a frame, I recommend using a trusted local professional framer to ensure the best result for your painting.

You’re warmly welcome to view the paintings in person at my soon-to-be atelier in Oulu. To arrange a visit, please fill out the contact form or send me an email at hello@mialivart.com.
