California Artist: Quincey Grace

I LOVE faces, shiny eyes, lip curves, nose angles, cheekbones slants, eyebrow lines, but I grew up in the middle of a walnut grove in the Central Valley of California, miles from any female playmates my age.  No faces—aside from family—to see.

I think I sculpt to surround myself with friends…a network of lovely, unique, exotic companions.

I lean into the work of other artists–often starting from portraits I find on Pinterest

Portraits pull me inside the frame, where I feel the texture and weight of the clothes, the pull of the hair, and smell the flowers, food, or dog in the foreground. 

Exotic head dressings throw me into another dimension as I imagine the way my head would have to move and be positioned to accommodate the extra weight, and how I might have to listen harder to hear through the thickness of the fabric.

I’m also magnetized by bright colors, fascinated by fabric, and ecstatic over beads!

In my sculptures, I  join all the things I love into works of art that look back at me, and voila, I have new friends!

Come meet them and join our friendship circle.
