Clarice is a graduate of Marymount College with a degree in Studio Art and Business. She is a Latina American who grew up attending school in both Connecticut and Argentina. Her award-winning paintings and drawings have been purchased for both private and public collections and exhibited in over 50 solo, juried, and group shows in both museums and galleries throughout the Tri-state area.
“ I feel very fortunate to be able to express myself through the visual arts. I sketch whenever I have a moment; a pad and a micron pen wherever I go. Sketching is calming and meditative and helps me see the world around me to appreciate its beauty in something that may be over looked in a busy life.”
Shirvell is the founder and instructor of “The Artist’s Way Study Group” and was the curator of The Meetinghouse Gallery in Ridgebury. She won the 2021 Artist in Residence at Ridgefield Guild of Artists and 2022 Artful Grant and RPAC Residence where each concluded with a solo show featuring new series of work.
Currently, Clarice has her own studio at the G and B Cultural Center in Wilton, CT where she works on painting commissions and book illustrations as well as a new series for upcoming exhibit.
