Annalise Gratovich
Art Appreciation
"It's a Gratovich," I whispered to my friend as we were visiting the Elisabet Ney Museum in central Austin. Sure enough, the print is by Austin printmaker Annalise Gratovich.
Gratovich is a well-known and respected printmaking artist knwon for her woodcuts of powerful and symbolic images.
You can view more of her work HERE.
