Grant Drumheller’s joyous paintings of crowds engaging and celebrating with each other represent an ever-present collective yearning—for revelry, merriment, and gathering together. The works embody la joie de vivre – the joy of living. Through paint, watercolor, and gouache, Drumheller depicts the life-giving vitality of celebration and fun, and offers both collective and individual joy as an atmosphere, enhanced by his figures’ ability to move freely. His paintings reveal a love of life, a tribute to the healing qualities of nature, and an invitation to revel, laugh, and gulp up life. They are an invitation to absorb la joie de vivre.
