Granter |
As
an antidote to the constraints of my computer-intensive graphic design
career, I began painting. As time went on, I became integrated with
painting. Brushing dabs of oil on a surface in a human effort to capture
the sublime, is a challenge that
keeps me hyper-aware of the textures, shapes, and patterns of daily
life. I believe that a beautiful painting is both a gift of vision and
testament of appreciation for our short little lives here on Earth.
