About Britt Clayton

Britta Clayton (“Britt” is a childhood nickname), 54, is a fluid acrylic artist living in Houston, Texas. During the day, she works as a Project and Administrative Coordinator for a local remodeling company in Houston Heights. Britt draws much of her inspiration from both the bold and subdued styles of decor she sees in her day job. Being a single girl leaves her a lot of time to focus on her passion - putting color to canvas and creating something conversation-worthy and unique. She believes that your art should be just as colorful and one-of-a-kind as you are.

Britta was raised in New Mexico and quickly developed a love and appreciation for the beautiful, earth tone landscape that surrounded her. You’ll see many of these earth tones incorporated into her pieces as “you can leave NM, but it never really leaves you”.

The love of physical beauty is universal - and art is not excluded. Art can make us feel, it can make us remember. It can transport us to another place in our memories that we may have forgotten, or it can trigger a response of either positive or negative emotion. Art is powerful.

Everyone deserves to have amazing art in their homes. The right piece on a wall coordinated with its surroundings can have a calming, zen-like effect. It can create a sanctuary, a safe haven. It can draw you in to another world. Art is powerful.

“Creating art has never been about the money for me. It’s about the act of ‘creating’ something gorgeous that’s pleasing to the eye and that speaks to the deepest part of a person. It’s about watching that smile light up someone’s face when it’s placed on the wall in its new home and it brings such dimension, ambiance and emotion to the room that you can literally feel it. It’s about creating joy - both on the canvas and in people’s lives. That’s why I do what I do. I’m happy to work with you and your budget to create a piece of art that’s perfect for your space and your wallet.

I was honored to be invited as a Guest Instructor to the Fluid Art Experience in Seattle, WA in April ‘23. The event was a sell out and so much fun was had by all. I will be attending the FAE once again as a Guest Instructor in May, 2024 in beautiful Asheville, NC.

Besides my four children and three grandchildren that I love with my whole heart, below are my three other loves:”

Addy - born around December 1, 2018. Very temperamental as most female Siamese are. She was born in the attic of my apartment (hence her name) and had to be liberated from my living room wall! I had the pleasure of bottle-feeding her from 2 to 6-weeks and I am her only Alpha. She’s prim and proper and doesn’t frolic around a whole lot, but she’s extremely affectionate and loves to curl up on my chest for her naps. She’s a Diva to her spoiled rotten core and she takes no nonsense from her brother and sister. I literally cannot say a word to this cat without her talking back.

Bubba is a Gray Point Siamese that was born sometime in July 2019. He was found at an apartment complex and had been abandoned by his mother at 2-weeks old. I rescued him from the shelter and bottle-fed him for a month. He’s the most playful, laid back Siamese I’ve ever seen. He can spend hours playing fetch and loves to drag himself along the bottom of my furniture like he’s possessed but at night he has to curl up next to me to fall asleep.

Spice Girl was born around June of 2019. I picked her out at the shelter at about 8-weeks old. Out of all the kittens there, she was the most nonchalant of them all, like she didn’t have a care in the world. She’s very sweet and sensitive and has the loudest purrrr. We don’t have the same bond as the other two since I didn’t bottle feed her, but she knows who her mama is. She and Bubba like to curl up and take naps together, and take turns giving each other baths. They’re definitely sweethearts and spend most of their time trying to stay out of evil Addy’s way.
