MCLEAN, AFCA
Grant McLean had his first juried show with FCA in 1977, exhibiting three Pen & Ink drawings at Presentation House. Later the same year, another P&I piece "Solitaire" was selected for the Travelling Show. It was an interesting time, being his grad year from UBC as a Physiotherapist. Having doodled through anatomy labs and library study times, a decision was looming; art or Rehab as a career. The decision was :BOTH! |

| Grant followed FCA around Vancouver, from location to location, having exhibited in over 30 juried shows with over 50 works, from Water Street to Richards Street to Granville Island. " I am forever explaining, to those who ask, what FCA is all about, and why I pursue this venue(among others) for showing my work. Like many artists, I have a fulltime vocation, which does regular battle with my passion. I need feedback and challenge toward artistic growth; this I find with Juried Exhibitions at FCA." After 25 years of exhibiting drawings and paintings with FCA, Grant was elevated to Signature Status this year. One more thing to try explaining: " AFCA to me is recognition of a level of painting excellence earned through a jury of your peers. It also raises the bar for the next challenge….." | ||
