Grant Hunter is an Australian artist and illustrator working across traditional mixed media and digital techniques.
Influenced by cinema, music, animation, and comic books, he creates images that combine expressive linework, bold colour, and the energy of the sketchbook. His work transforms familiar imagery from popular culture into strange worlds of psychedelic horror, where childhood nostalgia is twisted by anxiety and unease.
Grant graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Art from the University of Newcastle and has exhibited in Australia and the United States. His work has been commissioned for books, magazines, event posters, and album covers.
Grant embraces the unpredictable nature of drawing, where spontaneous marks, strange characters, and unexpected combinations can evolve. He balances chaos with composition, letting instinct and experimentation guide the work from the first mark through to the finished piece.

Drawings

Traditional drawings on paper and real deal sketchbook samples. I use ink, markers, and watercolour and try to keep things loose, these are about spontaneous mark-making, improvisation and navigating around the page. Juxtaposed figures, asymmetrical shapes, repeating textures. Fear and horror.

Back in the mid 00's I contributed to the following popular music groups which are shamelessly presented here for your amusement.

Crab Smasher _{Experimental/free improvisation/noise pop trio from Newcastle NSW Australia. Using electronics, drums and guitars they produce a playful, clumsy and unpredictable mutation of psychedelic rock, noise, drone, doom, avant-pop, post-punk, electronica, new age/weird etc. etc.}

The Night Of Love _{Psychedelic improv outfit with members based in Brisbane and Newcastle, Australia.}

Polyfox And The Union Of The Most Ghosts _{A fox wanders into a grey forest, the grey forest inspires in the fox heart the polychameleon elements of its fox circulatory system, lighting fires of forest greens through its fox fur. This causes splinters of fox colour to shoot like arrows from the tips of the fox fur printing the surrounding forest in fox colours.}
