At just 21 years old, fine artist Grace Payne-Kumar reveals why centuries-old classical techniques have inspired her to adopt traditional methods in her art.
Grace Payne-Kumar always knew she wanted to be an artist, and a school trip to Italy where she saw the works of old masters confirmed this. Rejecting some of the concept-led art schools in the UK, Grace found herself studying in Florence, training in the classical techniques she originally fell in love with. Now an award-winning artist based in Edinburgh, Grace reveals how she strikes her own balance between tradition and modernity, and shares her latest commission of Lady Dorrian, Scotland鈥檚 lord justice clerk, which is soon to be hung in Parliament House.
