Grace Crabtree is an artist based in Bridport, West Dorset, whose paintings of land and water are grounded in the experience of walking or swimming, and infused with hints of historic or mythic narratives connected to a place. Working mostly in egg tempera, the painting surfaces hold delicate layers and scratched incisions.
Since graduating from the Ruskin School of Art in 2019, Grace has exhibited in a number of group exhibitions, and attended artist residencies in France, Portugal, and Cyprus. She has recently completed two years of the Turps Correspondence Course (2020-21; 2021-22).
