George has a passion for nature, and finds inspiration hiking near his cabin on the Bluffs of Nottawasaga, near Singhampton, north of Toronto. George lives with his wife Carolyn in Toronto, near to their son Sam. The Vales, crafted over many years, draws on an eclectic mix of characters and experience. It is ultimately about personal relationships and family. The Vales is George Graziani’s first novel. Artist Philosophy: I believe that Art is deeply intimate, personal, and yet universal. A relationship develops between the writer, their characters, and most importantly the reader. The characters in a novel, like the people in your life, become a part of you. Their experiences; be it a moment in nature, the love for a child, a memory, a worry, a fear, or even an idea move us with emotion that is necessarily personal and most often private. I believe it is also universal, and shared with you, the reader, to pick-up and to make your own. Connect with George on instagram at @GGArtCanada
