In 2008 she decided to pursue her dream of learning to paint in encaustic. By 2012, Claudia was teaching encaustic painting at Pacific Northwest College of Art. During this time, intrigued with the process of printing images in the sun without harmful chemicals, Claudia started incorporating cyanotypes into the backgrounds of her paintings.
