ABOUT

Hi all! ( ´ â–½ ` )ノ

​

My name is Grace Kennedy, and I'm an artist and illustrator from Connecticut! I'm a rising Honors junior at the University of Connecticut, where I'm majoring in Art (though I plan to dual degree in French) and minoring in Business Fundamentals. I've been drawing traditionally since as long as I can remember, and have been doing digital art (my now preferred medium) for about 10 years! I love experimenting with new art forms (and new anything, really!), and illustrating my favorite pieces of media as well as my own projects.

ARTIST'S STATEMENT

It cannot be emphasized enough how important my personal art is to me. There is so much fully freeform, consistent work I do at home, where I try to improve my skills, and workshop my ideas. My dream is to incorporate my art into my life - ideally in a career, though I’d also be happy as a dedicated hobbyist - as it has been a lifelong passion.


I am of the firm belief that art is endlessly interesting and important to the world. Life inspires art, and thus art inspires life, and it all has an immense impact on life as we know it - in shaping society and culture, on levels both small and large. Though the impact of art is underestimated, artists continue to create - even the smallest of sketchbook doodles can bring so much joy, and I hope that any of my work can similarly bring positive change, big or small.
