Artist Biography

Thomas Carleton Grant was born in Liverpool, Lancashire, in 1858, the second of the three children of the baker and flour dealer.

While it is not known if he received formal art training, Grant started to exhibit at the Walker Gallery in Liverpool in 1885. In 1892 showed his first works at the Royal Academy, showing ten works at the academy until 1897. In 1895 he was elected into the Royal Society of Artists and went on to show 24 works in their exhibitions. He was known for his unique approach to using watercolour, creating a atmospheric and very individual finish to his works.
