Artist

Dr. Grace Pailthorpe

Dr. Grace Pailthorpe is a Surrealism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Grace Pailthorpe made watercolours like *Abstract with Eye and Breast* in 1938, playing with shape and symbol. She belonged to no named movement, working in a quiet, private way. Each sheet feels like a puzzle piece: curves lock with slashes of colour, leaving the eye to wander. Tap *Abstract with Eye and Breast* to step inside that puzzle and trace the lines yourself.
