Featured by The Ottawa Life Magazine as one of the 2013 Top 25 people in the Capital, Colombian artist Claudia Salguero is an Art-Based Facilitator, award-winning Photo-fine-artist and Latin Jazz singer.

As visual artist and after years working as designer and professional photographer, Claudia became fascinated by the boundless possibilities of digital art and in 2006 she decided to complement her natural palette with the digital brushes of Corel’s Painter Digital Art Studio, blending photography, digital and traditional art in a magical mix.

Her mastery in Corel Painter earned her a place in Corel’s international group Elite Painter Masters. Claudia has presented various solo exhibitions and group exhibitions in Canada and abroad, and has been featured in publications in USA, Canada, Spain, England and Colombia as well as in Ottawa-based television shows. Claudia is a Corel Painter Photo-Fine-Art Certified Instructor and teaches digital art workshops on line in Spanish and English and also in her studio in Ottawa.

As recognized Latin Jazz singer in Ottawa and through her annual sold-out concerts at the Ottawa’s National Arts Centre accompanied by her 10-piece band, she has been raising funds for kids foundations in her home country Colombia since 2011.

Claudia believes in art and music as a tool for a better society.
