Hi, I’m Mark Granlund.

I am an artist (painting, printmaking, drawing), arts administrator (twenty nine years of arts and public art programming), and a writer exploring the natural and artistic world. Here on my Substack, you will find my writings about my projects, and how I go about making things. You will also find many images of my art, finished and unfinished.

I am not a typical artist/writer where I am trying to create “lessons” from which you can become better at an art technique. I share what I think and how I approach the world. I share my projects - I think and move forward in terms of projects or bodies of work.

You can view and purchase my artwork on my art website: markgranlund.com.

Want to know more about me? You can listen to a podcast where I was interviewed by fellow Substacker, Cyn of Ink and Insight:
