I have a grid with two columns, and have text in column 1 and an image in column two (See image). Is there a way to wrap the text around the image? If not how can I make Column 1 take up 80% and the image 20% of the row?

That looks nice, but it is not what I am after. that component would work if I could make the 1st column large and second col small. Picture a 12col row with the first ten columns merged and holding a para of text, while the image spans the last two columns.
