About John Grant
 Some of you may remember me as a co-founder of the fine art publishing group "Thomasson- Grant". Now I've come full circle, back to my original interests and instinctive love of photography. Experimenting with new technological tools and techniques, my work most often focuses on botanical imagery.
I am represented by Getty Images worldwide, and by Kathleen Ewing Gallery in Washington, D. C. I work out of my home studio in Charlottesville.

In my photographic work I seek to distill and dramatize natural elements, transforming them into symbolic metaphor. I embrace the often clichéd or sentimental botanical portrayal, presenting objects in ways that infuse them with an enigmatic quality that expands expectations and tweaks the imagination.
