My name is Grace, and I am a twenty four year old multi-disciplined artist based in Wellington. I am currently studying for a diploma in Art & Creativity, and aspire to pursue a career in tattooing.
My work is created intuitively with a variety of mediums including screenprinting, acrylic, inks, digital and woodcut. I like to incorporate a cohesive theme of dark and light subject matters and colour palettes, often combining the strange and unusual with what is typically perceived as delicate and beautiful.
