Based in Rhinebeck, New York, McGrath melds a variety of media—most pieces contain a mixture of graphite, ink, and oil and acrylic paints—into dynamic compositions suffuse with mystery. McGrath is preparing for solo exhibitions in Saugerties, New York, and Kent, Connecticut, later this year, along with a few group shows. 3,” colored pencil and graphite on panel, 10 x 8 inches
