When I am moved to paint landscapes I work to bring the spirit of the place into the painting. Sometimes the result is realistic, sometimes the result is more abstract.

I participated in the Garden Art Show last Saturday. The weather was perfect, the setting beautiful and I learned so much from my fellow artists. Thank you to all.

I’m Simone Gratton and I am a retired educator, grandmother and visual artist living in Calgary. I began my artistic journey as a child creating cartoon portraits and silhouettes for my brothers and sisters to hang on their walls. I took a 40 year hiatus and only returned to art when I retired in 2009.

For the last 16 years I have worked with a number of very talented artist/teachers and honed my skills and knowledge to create images that reflect the way I see the world. I work in acrylic, paper and various mediums and love to create chunky, textured pieces. I am drawn to the human figure and life in all forms of nature and strive to imbue personality into my stylized work. I have ventured into Abstraction and am loving the freedom it provides.

I have recently begun to share my work on Instagram and Facebook and will be showing pieces in the Garden Gallery show on August 9, 2025 and the Ebb and Flow Show at Framed on Fifth Gallery September 30 to October 25, 2025.
