From the first painting in my David Bowie series. A series inspired while painting automatically while listening to David Bowie music and interviews. The original painting is in a private collection, however, I am creating 10 individual, mixed media one of a kind, artist embellished prints. I work with a master fine art printer in Toronto, using natural white, matte, ultra smooth, 100% cotton rag, acid, and lignin free archival paper, with archival pigments . Trimmed with 2"-4" border for framing. I hand paint each individual print by commission...in the same fashion as I made the original painting, by filling my studio space with Bowie's music and adding paint and new details spontaneously. Each piece is created once ordered, no 2 are alike.. Here's the short version about the portal I leaped into immediately after I heard of David Bowie's passing. I went straight to my studio filling it with his music and interviews. It became a spontaneous free-flowing collaboration that brought this expressive piece to life. The beginning of an incredibly deeply inspired journey, full of leaps into the unknown... immersing myself into discovering David's creative journey, as well as my own. 9 months later I drove from Toronto to NYC. With the permission and support of David's neighbors, I spent 3 weeks working beside his family's home creating a 10x10ft mural. Thanks to a long list of people who showed up I was able to spend over 2 amazing months living within a short walk from the mural. I am definitely in love with NYC and the people there. on January 10th 2017 I was back in NYC to paint live at Terminal 5 in NYC during Bowie’s band's goodwill concert series celebrating David Bowie, a solo show January 11/17 with the series in Soho, then painting live again with his band for 2 nights at The Wiltern in Los Angeles.

Bridget is fueled by curiosity. Her work is expressive and driven by exploration, spontaneity, and intuition. In her early career, Bridget’s multifaceted artistic abilities manifested themselves through performance art and acting, allowing her to explore emotional depths and exposing her to the global community, culture, and art. Today, Bridget’s canvases express the wealth of her collective experiences, the timelessness of her inquisitive nature, thirst for the undefined, and acceptance of the ever-changing. Exploration of emotion and the constantly-shifting universal fiber are fundamental values of her expression. I paint intuitively following the flow of the moment. Sometimes in complete silence, other times with music guiding, most often working on several canvases at a time. At times I feel much like I imagine a conductor feels in front of an orchestra, the canvases are filled with different sounds, the paint and materials playout as either a section or the entire orchestra. To me, Life is art, full of contrast, and nothing in this universe is static. My approach is an expressionistic map of my experiences, curiosity, and explorations...most often in an abstracted metaphorical form. I feel art is infinite. I am at my best when I can go with the flow by listening to my intuition, evolving and discovering the many languages that give visual voice to moments in my life. ”- Bridget Griggs The innate, explorative truth expressed by the visual dialogue of her painted works has attracted a vast private collector, and corporate clientele following and is sought out by the international creative and design communities. Recognized for her artistic virtuosity, Bridget’s works can be seen in numerous public spaces across Canada and the US, such as in the lobby of The Fairmont Hotel in Calgary, A large David Bowie-inspired mural beside his families home on Lafayette St. NYC, Odgers Berndtson at the Royal Bank Plaza, Toronto, Totum Fitness Life Science to name a few. Bridget stays constantly creatively engaged whether traveling across the globe in search for the new frontiers of exploration, or in her native Canada where she paints in her treasured studio space located in the Roncesvalles Village – one of the few remaining artist warehouse spaces in Toronto Her paintings are regularly featured and sold through Saatchi Art, fulfilling her goal to connect with a global audience. https://lifeasahuman.
