Atmospheric new work from the Edinburgh-based painter
Edinburgh artist Audrey Grant’s painted portraits are a voyage of discovery for the artist as much as the viewer, a series of figures who have been uncovered by Grant as she follows what’s now a defined process. ‘I intend a figure, then apply paint to the canvas and scrape it back until the figure asserts itself,’ she says. ‘From there it’s about trying to make it work with the space around it, building things up with marks and incisions.’ Read David Pollock’s preview article at www.list.co.uk or The List magazine, Issue 709, 19 February 2013
