Works by Grant BuistGrant Buist lived in Maryland, USA, during the Carter administration and in central Moscow just before the collapse of Communism. He now lives in Wellington, New Zealand, and draws cartoons, including ‘Jitterati’ for Capital Times and ‘Brunswick’ for student newspapers around the country. He also directs music videos and makes short animated films. He once single-handedly painted a 23-metre long mural and been paid to sing on stage. He would one day like a normal life. These
prints
are an attempt to recreate the flat, simplified look of
screenprints and Japanese woodblocks. They are created from photographs
of Rhiannon which are cropped and worked on in Flash. Every outline and
feature is reduced to just three colours and shades (black, white, and
red).
