Claire, who signs her pictures MINTER-KEMP, is a truly versatile artist with 30 years experience, well known for her subtly humorous but technically excellent illustrations. She has an extensive portfolio, with a strong suit in gentle greetings cards, but is equally at home painting a portrait or sculpting an imaginative bronze. Tom Dickins is her husband and her publisher. The charity element of her greetings card business has raised over £200,000 for cancer charities since 1991. This in response to her mother's premature death.
