Description
San Francisco design store and gallery, Rare Device, is proud to present Small Details: New Work by Trish Grantham (www.trishgrantham.com). Her work will occupy the Rare Device gallery December 11, 2008 - January 27, 2009. A reception for the artist will be held Thursday, December 11 from 7 - 9 pm.

Trish Grantham, a self-taught painter and emerging Northwest artist, has captured the imagination of thousands with her playful works. Using a variety of paper media and acrylic paint and resin on wood panels, Grantham paints a cast of doe-eyed, cartoon-like characters: Bunny, Robot-Panda, Girl, Carl the Squirrel, Think-Monster, Toast, Birds, and more populate her surfaces. The simple lines and stylized characters parallel Japanese anime, and the fantasy world they inhabit is wholly original. Appearing alternately wistful, pensive, punch-drunk, in love or troubled, these characters play out classic themes of good versus evil and romantic love.
