Grant Hacking was born and raised in South Africa, where his parents were both professional artists. He recalls observing his father at the easel. It was later in life before he recognized he had learned many of his technical skills, as well as exhibiting and marketing skills from his parents. He moved to the United States in 1990 with his wife and two daughters, and has made his home in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. He has great pleasure, depicting diverse animal life native to the African Continent. His oeuvre now includes figurative work, architecture, coastal scenes, and landscapes. “What I really paint is nature. When the weather is good, I enjoy painting en plein air. When the chill winds of winter arrive, I return to my studio where painting my memories of Africa instills a sense of warmth.”

Receiving his draft notice the year after graduation, he and became an Army medic and served in Germany during the late 1960s. Upon discharge he headed to Switzerland to climb the Matterhorn! “It was a soul liberating experience.”
Returning to the U.S., Tom became a recognized illustrator of Sci-fi and fantasy. He was named Best Professional Artist of the year by the New England Science Fiction Convention in 1976. Then life changed. Overwhelmed by business and personal turmoil, Tom grabbed his duffle, a bottle of rum, and bought a one way ticket to Arizona. The open spaces inspired him and the honkey-tonk soothed his soul! He settled in and began to paint. Returning to the east coast in 1984, he settled in Andover, NH, where he writes and continues to explore, through his painting. Tom’s works are displayed in galleries from coast to coast, and is in private collections world-wide.
