The revolutionary quality of Cote Clementina the creator

Born in 1943 as Cote Clementina, the creator demonstrated that she had a brain of her own in whatever she sought to do. From taking the pseudo name of Cleo in rebellion against her family name, the life of the illustrious creator Cote Clementina has been a rebellion in not just her personal circle, but also in introducing a type of skill into her creations that were so much her own.

According to her own statements|As she herself said, she has been affected by some of the masters of her generation, such as Monet and Picasso. However, though pleased by them and their achievements, Cote Clementina resisted against any such art form that was typified into a genre. Because of this, nobody has been able to classify the revolutionary and wayward Cote Clementina into the confines of museum exhibits or even the art world.

Cote Clementina's skill

Just like her life, much of Cote Clementina's creations have been a dizzying mix of themes, color coordination, and presentation. The creations of Impressionists have always been recognized in Europe and everywhere else, as well.
