There is a wonderful new addition to the local arts scene in Louisville: the Anthony Grant Studio Gallery, which opened earlier this month. Grant, who is also an architect, has a colorful and vibrant style of painting, and visiting his gallery is a real treat for the eyes and the soul. His bright and modern studio is located in the lower level of the Art Underground building at 917 Front Street in Historic Downtown Louisville.

Be sure to stop by the studio for the Louisville’s art walk on Friday, December 4^th from 5 to 8pm. The Anthony Grant Studio is also open daily from 10 to 5 or you can call 303.408.5533 for a personal appointment.

Michael is a local artist who is trained in art and graphic design. His medium of choice is acrylic on masonite, which allows for active working of the paint to reach the desired texture.

Many of his pieces are oriented in the vertical format for a unique display that allows for several works to be hung together. Michael also has sculptural pieces including several versions of the American flag. His style is inspired by Vincent Van Gough in depth, color, contrast, atmosphere, texture, and originality. His creations are often bight and decorative. Michael is a member of the Louisville Art Association.

He has had exhibitions in Denver, Boulder, and Louisville and won several awards for his art. You can find some of his pieces in Design Matters home stages is Boulder County and look for him on the local art scene web site www.artworknetwork.com.
