Grant Drumheller is an American painter. Drumheller is a portrait, figurative and still life painter. His work has been exhibited in New York City, throughout New England, and in Europe. Originally known for his large works alluding to myth and allegory, Drumheller's work has grown smaller and, by his own admission, more personal as the years pass.
