SCAPES An exhibition of paintings by William Grace.
William Grace was born in Kilkenny City in 1964. He has been painting full time since the early 1990’s. His main subject matter is the urban and rural environment. He is interested in the contrast between the old and the new, the drama of tone and light and the sense of changing environments. His paintings catch a moment in time through his unique approach to the subject matter.
William is concerned to make his paintings work at several different levels. At one level there is an apparently realistic depiction of particular places but at another level they are also very carefully composed and are intended to work as abstract compositions and as such they capture the Artist’s personal reaction to the environment around him. It is application of paint that excites him, wrestling with the paint and the flat surface of the board. He enjoys a vibrant rich palette of colour which is very evident in his work.
