Artist Name

Grace A Bryan. Watercolor Artist. Loved the art books and illustrated children's books. Could not get enough of what that was about when I was very young. When cartoons came on the TV, Walt Disney was the ultimate for me to learn how to make a drawing come alive and move. Through all his beautiful art, I wanted to learn more. Later purchased many art books and started coloring with the great crayons and the drawing and watercolor painting - much later designed my own greeting cards. Went to the college of Art and Design in Laguna Beach for my BFA and starting teaching art classes. A good friend of mine, also an artist, Toma Kounta, got together and made a cartoon with my stick figure"ant people" with the background of Walt Disney's influence from "Fantasia."

Grew up in Laguna Beach, CA with my family and ended up here in T or C. Still teaching art classes and enjoying the New Mexico world.
