In addition to being a full time artist, Grace volunteers to manage the Denver Art Society Main Gallery and is there most of the week. She also manages Spectra Art Space, her own studio/gallery, and volunteers as the Event Committee Chair (and Board of Directors member) for Denver's Art District on Santa Fe.  She works one day a week at a llama farm in Boulder doing land restoration and farm chores.

Grace is a mixed media fine artist and installation artist.  Her paintings are made by burning her drawings into wood, watercolor, acrylic paint, oil paint, encaustic (beeswax), glitter and gold.  She also makes woodblock prints, builds sculptural installations for events like the Underground Music Showcase Odyssey Stage 2019, Ratio Beerworks Genius Wizzard 2019, El Dia De Los Muertos at Museo De Las Americas, and Spectra Art Space's Spookadelia series.  Grace does not have a studio at home so she makes her art on one side of her studio and displays it on the other. She also creates art on recycled surfaces, her Mountain Records series is designed to uplift and make something new/better than before.

Grace
