Ton Gravelijn, born 14 January 1948 in Waalwijk, studied at the Royal Academy of Art in Den Bosch between 1966 and 1971. During his studies he developed a preference for the linocut. With this technique he graduated Cum Laude.
In 1971 he also made his debut at Galerie Eylders in Zandvoort.
In a review from the Haarlems Dagblad the following is written:
'His world full of symbolic figures, fascinating, grotesque combinations, hybrid forms and events, seems to be borrowed from nothing else. Even the association with Hieronymus Bosch does not hold water.'
Ton did not stick to the linocut and developed himself further. He started making gouaches and oil paintings.
