Retro Art for Vintage Souls

Bestseller

Each painting by Claire Dockray, the artist behind Glass Bambi celebrates nostalgia, beauty, and storytelling. Inspired by past celebrity icons, vintage ornaments, glassy textures and cinematic lighting to convey the bittersweet shimmer of memory.

Taking inspiration from past decades from the 1960s and 70s, she creates ideas from real life vintage photography and everyday memorabilia to capture the retro chic of yesteryear.

Welcome to a world of dreamy colour, retro charm, and fragile beauty — where every painting tells its own story.

New Collection

Exploring the concepts of fragility and light, Prisms of Light forms part of my new collection of glass-animal paintings. This series reflects on how glass—both nostalgic and ornamental—invites us to see familiar subjects with renewed sensitivity. By reimagining endangered animals as delicate glass forms, the work asks whether we might view them differently: with greater reverence, caution, and care. The transparency and luminosity of glass become metaphors for vulnerability, reminding us how precious—and precarious—these creatures truly are.
