Claudia Capeau Holt grew up in New York City and worked in the design district of Manhattan before moving to Dallas. Two weeks later, she met her husband, Charles, a native of Rockwall. Claudia studied art at North Texas University and then began her career in Real Estate. Claudia began to concentrate more on her photography skills during the recent downturn in the economy. Not satisfied with merely showing what exists in a literal sense, Claudia’s photoart adds another dimension to traditional photography - something that invokes a feeling or mood, and allows the viewer to see a different aspect of the familiar. “Beauty is all around us in the abandoned, wild, and ordinary things of life.”
