I had found Trish Grantham in
HOW magazine's August 2006 issue and fell in love with her illustrations! Not only does she do regular artwork that have the collage feel, she does a lot of installations that are the same. Her murals are really interesting as well. To me, it's not only the collages that I really like, she has a very pleasing color palette of lighter colors of blues, pinks, and yellows.
I wonder, though, for some of these illustrators what the message is they're trying to exactly convey? There is a certain sadness in the installation (to the right) but don't understand why the dove is wearing a crown? Either way, I would definitely view more of her work if she had some here in town.
Her work has really great texture and dimensional feel to it. I like the clouds crying all over the room, almost like they are missing the people that used to be there...
