Artwork Description

Island Escapade is a playful abstract painting that gives a bird’s-eye view of a secluded island enclave, perfect for a family boating day out. Painted in a whimsical, fun naïve, abstract style, the scene is made up of vibrant dots showing the ocean and beach all set in deep calming blue tones. It captures the laid-back vibes of summer, with little details of people frolicking in the sea and sea creatures lurking beneath for a bit of fun.
Island Escapade is a combination of deep blue hues, teals and beiges.

Artist Bio

My name is Michelle Grayson and I have loved painting and illustrating since I can remember. I hail from a family of creative souls (my mother Phoebe in particular) so my memories of birthdays and Christmas were crayon caddies, paints and brushes. I studied graphic design and fine arts so I spent the nineties and following decade trying my hand at all sorts of creative and sometimes not so creative jobs. I love to paint timeless, iconic things - a fashion piece or item that takes me back to an era of elegance and nostalgia.
A blue and white Willow teacup or plate, a 1920s
bathing cap, days at the coast, an old suitcase or ming vase - all reminders of my beautiful
grandmother and her global adventures during the 1920s and beyond. And of course, my own travels and adventures - old and new ones that I am now making with my husband and children - holidays, trips to the beach, vintage shop finds, socks on clotheslines, things we love to touch, tase and collect together... These are a few of my favourite things...
