Rachel Grant A Peaceful Afternoon

Artist Statement I am an artist and designer based in 'The Potteries', the creative county of North Staffordshire in the middle of England. I live and work from an old terraced house without a right angle in sight and it's this love of history, time-worn surfaces and hidden stories that often inspire and inform my work. I like to work in layers, both by hand and digitally, to try and evoke this sense of age and depth. Being an introvert I am a real home bird, I like to grow vegetables, bake bread, knit and watch films, snuggled under crochet blankets. I yearn for flowers, fresh air and the sea and I listen to music all day, every day!
