Watercolor, ink, and digital media, 2023

Art Direction: Ken Huang, Major Gifts Manager at The Nature Conservancy of Maine

Watercolor illustration of a serene winter scene featuring a skier pausing on a snowy trail under a vibrant starry sky. The skier, dressed in winter gear and carrying a backpack with rolled-up skis, gazes upward, admiring the colorful gradient of twilight with hues of orange, pink, and purple. Snow-covered pine trees and distant mountains frame the scene, while a cozy, triangular cabin with glowing windows sits nestled among the trees in the distance. The atmosphere is peaceful and magical, evoking a sense of wonder and solitude in nature.

In 2023, Claire Loon Baldwin created a custom illustration for The Nature Conservancy of Maine’s holiday card. The piece depicts a cross-country skier gliding through a snow-covered Maine landscape under a starry sky. The skier, carrying a backpack filled with tools and maps, depicts the work of environmental scientists who conduct field research year-round.

Created with a mix of watercolor, ink, and digital techniques, the illustration blends traditional and modern methods to bring the landscape to life in a fresh way.

To inquire about a custom illustration or to commission artwork for your organization, send Claire an email.
