Elisabeth Grant

Statement

I am Elisabeth Grant a mixed media artist living in Glasgow, but from Sweden. I started to paint some years ago and  it was more by accident although creativity has been a big part of my life and mostly involved textiles.

I have an interest in colour, shape, form, texture, line, mark and layering of different materials.There is a real enjoyment for me in exploring and discovering new things. New ways of applying paint, collage, pens, crayons, textile or other things I have found to be of interest and it is like a long conversation. 

For me it is important that the buyer get something special and for me that means original art which means I do not do prints of my work.

I had my first solo exhibition  in Glasgow 2003 of my textile work. Between 2003 and to date I have had several solo exhibitions and taking part in several group art exhibitions in Scotland, England and Sweden.

In Sweden I studied textile, fashion and design  and I have a Certificate from City and Guild, Cardonald Collage in textile design and patchwork.  I have also taken several courses at House for an ArtLover and several on-line courses since 2020.
