Artist's Statement

In 2009 Mary Ann Grainger started a full time artist practice. She took her fear in hand and began to experiment.  This site features examples of the many directions this experimentation has resulted in… so far.

“My art explores how I feel about life and the world in which I live. Some of the work is inherently political.  Then again, sometimes a piece has no greater intention than to share a simple, pure emotion.”
