Grace’s charcoal figure drawings are a reflection of beauty in the perfections and imperfections of the female form. While we live in a world of airbrushed magazine covers, Grace’s work celebrates the differences of a woman’s shape and curves. Her classic pieces bring a sensuous and sophisticated feel to living and work space.

I live to travel. I can spend hours looking through old linen postcards and tinted glass slides of years gone past. And I’m never more inspired than when standing in a foreign place absorbing and trying to capture the sights, colors, light and sounds of the place. Photographs are my souvenirs. During long Chicago winters, I try to replicate those dreamy, Grand Tour, touches in my own travel pictures…hand-coloring, making polaroid transfers and playing in my digital darkroom. I hope my photographs bring you the essence of the place and give you a smile with a daydream.
