She studied graphic design in art school before earning her BFA with a major in painting. Raised in Hawai‘i, she was drawn early to the relationships between color, form, and atmosphere, sensitivities that would later inform both her design career and her studio practice.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--black\"\u003eBefore turning fully toward painting, Calie worked in branding and advertising as an art director, designer, and strategist in New York and San Francisco. She led creative teams and crafted cohesive visual systems across web, mobile, and print. During this time, she partnered with renowned clients including Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma, Ogilvy \u0026amp; Mather, and Landor Associates. This background refined her approach to composition, structure, and visual clarity, elements that now underpin the disciplined yet expansive nature of her abstract work.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--black\"\u003eIn 2021, Calie moved back to O‘ahu with her husband and two children.

What initially feels sharp and overwhelming can soften through time, experience, and willingness to stay. The piece speaks to transformation, where vulnerability gives way to strength, clarity, and quiet beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003eThe painting unfolds through layered textures and fluid movement. Soft aquas, greens, and pinks move across the surface like waves shaping what they touch. The composition reveals itself gradually, holding space for lingering attention and offering a gentle reminder that even our most tender moments can become luminous.- Calie Durant \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCurrently displayed at the Mauna Lani, Auberge Resort, 1st floor south hall.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Calie Durant","offers":[{"title":"31\" h x 25\" w","offer_id":46411216945351,"sku":null,"price":2800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0259\/5930\/1204\/files\/calie-durant-seaglass-silo-hawaii-art-photograph.jpg?v=1776206382","url":"https:\/\/tiffanysartagency.com\/products\/sea-glass-by-calie-durant","provider":"Tiffany's Art Agency","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
