Griffin’s work has evolved from a deep-rotted understanding and appreciation of the academic approach to a more personal and direct interpretation of his experiences and surroundings. He is a perceptual painter; his work is based on observations and direct response. While Griffin remains faithful to the the principles and ideals of his classical training, his work has developed into looser, more confident voice – a testament not only to his skill, but to his personal vision. – Anne Neilson Fine Art Gallery
