Item Description

Grace Rankin is a versatile artist whose talent has been shown in a variety of media ranging from watercolor to oil, pastel, pen and ink and mixed media.

Born in Canada, Rankin has lived in California since 1956 and started her painting career as a hobby in 1980.  Finding a natural talent combined readily with skills learned through classes and workshops from both local and nationally recognized artists, she became obsessed with the wonder of paint on paper.  A signature member of The Society of Western Artists by 1987, a number of awards soon followed.

Rankin served as both President and Gallery Director of the Fremont Art Association.  She also taught watercolor for the Fremont Art Association and the City of Fremont Recreation Department as well as workshops in the US and Europe.  Her paintings can be seen at Fremont Art Association Gallery in Fremont.
