Patrick Grieve: Reparation and Adrift
"Patrick’s paintings are exquisitely articulated, more simply Pat is a master craftsman who appreciates colour, texture, light, shade and possesses a lifetime professional knowledge of paint and brush and charcoal and graphite."
"I enjoy these paintings as they speak to me of Tasmania, our seasons and landscape with a ravishing brilliance and refreshing truth. The openness of land, the brutal harshness of compressed island space, the simple splendour of our nature with its wonderful variance of warmth and cold. It is this wonderfully attuned combination between vista and abstraction, between land, sky and meadow, and the absolute painterly energy on the canvas, that the creative magic, as if the poet wielding a mesmerising brush, conveys a humanistic narrative."
- Dr Malcolm Bywaters, Academic Director , UTAS
