Claire Earlie was born in County Limerick, Ireland and trained at the Limerick School of Art and the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art. She moved to New Zealand in 1981 and studied at the Wellington College of Education gaining a Diploma of Teaching majoring in art. At Victoria University Earlie completed a BA in Art History and settled in South Canterbury in 1998.

Also exploring the theme of rivers Eau Revoir presents an astonishing suite of large-scale works in the style of Fin de siècle posters. Each encapsulates the Goddess of a South Island East Coast river through which Earlie explores her love of the landscape and the concept of Maeve the Warrior Queen. The face of Orari is that of Claire herself.
