About
Grant was born in England, Leicestershire in 1989 and graduated at De Montfort University in Leicester in 2012, studying Graphic Design. The theme of his work clearly betrays a fascination for people and landscapes. Focused by this allure he paints family, friends, and complete strangers that can be found walking amongst us. The resources used are oil on canvas, furthermore some are painted direct on to an ipad using a digital brush that has the same effect as oil, but without the drying times.
In 2012, he created the ornamental didone typeface GCM22, GCM22 is also based on the letterforms of typographers; John Pistilli, Herb Lubalin and Si Scott. The ornate letterforms are based around the art of Turkish Ebru marbling, which is painting on water to create decorative patterns. His portfolio also contains several beautiful ornate typographic pieces. In 2013, he created the lachrymal typeface pluvia (2013).
Currently Grant is Painting and is a Freelance Graphic Designer
