Mab Graves is a Contemporary Pop-Surrealist artist and illustrator living and painting in a converted 1800âs tavern in a small corner of the dusty American Midwest.
A self-taught artist, her work is inspired deeply by fairy tales and old classic literature. She adores narrative. She blames this on her parents who unrelentingly read aloud to her and her three sisters as small, impressionable children.
Mabâs passion for creation has been an overwhelming obsession since she could grip a crayon, at about the age of 6 months. She spent her childhood and teen years adoring graphite and pen mediums (but being very suspicious of paints) until she discovered painting in early 2009, and then it was all over. She currently lives, works and dreams in Indianapolis, IN.
