Profile

Chiara Perano is an English-Italian artist and illustrator, based in East Sussex.  She creates her paintings on canvas, works on paper, limited edition prints and also paints murals. Her work uses harmonious tones and symbols, natural brushwork and explores floral and celestial shapes, nature and our connection to the Earth. Taking a holistic approach to creating art, Chiara explores making her own pigments, and depicts landscapes and female forms in almost ethereal scenes. She is inspired by her Italian heritage, La Dolce Vita, celebrating the simple joys in everyday life, good food and the beauty of our planet and skies.

In 2020 she created an exclusive limited edition collection for Liberty London which sold out, and her ‘Peace’ painting for the war in Ukraine raised £20,000 for DEC and Choose Love charities. 8 large paintings hang in the new Hotel de La Boetie in Paris designed by Beata Heuman and commissioned by Partnership Editions. In 2024 Chiara exhibited a solo show at Amie in London, and worked with other prestigious brands on commerical editorial commissions. Her artwork features on stationery, home and fashion with the likes of Papier, Net a Porter, Mulberry and Anthropologie, and she collaborates with interior designers to create bespoke murals and artwork for private and commercial properties. Her work has been featured in Elle Decoration, House & Gardens ‘Movers & Shakers’ and Vogue.
