Grant was inspired, by the Group of Seven, Canadian landscape painters; Jackson Pollock (1912-1956) American painter; and, Walt Disney's artists: John Lounsbery (1911-1976) and Mary Blair (1911-1978).
In my work, I hope to tell the story of an experience or an event. I feel it is important for me as an artist to document what I've encountered due to the enormous environmental changes and urban sprawl seen in our world today. I strive to create a record of the world that I see and to interpret the connection I have to the natural world.
