In December of 2018, I was in a bind trying to make my dad a present for Christmas. My best friend inspired me to try to paint the ocean, Since my dad taught me how to surf and has given me an extreme love for the ocean I loved the idea as a gift for him! I started experimenting with acrylic paint and resin that December and through the new year. I was determined to make my art as realistic as possible. By summer of 2019 I started an Instagram and was making things for friends and family. By August of 2019, I launched my website. Since then I have sold to 48 U.S. states and 5 different countries. I'm beyond thankful to God for the absolute GIFT it is to have friends and family who have helped me ride this wave and I can't wait to see where it takes me.

Love the back story about a gift for your Dad who shared his love of surfing and the precious strong Ocean. Your products look amazing and I love the entrepreneur spirit. Kuddos to your good friend for the inspiration too.
I love your work and I’m trying resin myself what resin do you use
I was at an event in December and won one of your custom painted skate boards! It was just delivered yesterday and I love it! Although I am not a skater (at least not yet), I am displaying your art in my living room. Thank you for creating beautiful designs.
We are thrilled to be carrying your amazing creations in the shop! You are a true success story !!

I absolutely love your work and your love for the ocean as it is mine also. I started surfing when I was 9 and I was never happy or content unless I was near the water. I’ve been an artist for over 30 years, and it started with me making wood surfboard wall art, then abstracts, until I got hooked on resin a year ago. I just got the nerve to open an etsy shop. I’m now 64 and starting all over, again, but my love for the beach will never leave me.
Hi Grace. I love your art and am so very proud of you and your talent. I would like to order 5 of the Shaka Ornaments but the web site indicates 2 are available. Can you have 5 available by Thanksgiving? I live in Morehead. I am available by text: 808-7965. Thank you.
Grace made a sign to hang in my office that I am super excited to hang. Her art is beautiful and she was so great to work with! I can’t say enough good things :) Thanks again!
We had been interested in resin art for a while and stumbled upon Grace’s page one day and immediately fell in love. Her work is so unique and absolutely stunning. She captures the ocean so perfectly in each one of her pieces. Our custom states hang right by our front door and are the first thing we see when we walk into our little home, always drawing us back to the water.
Her attention to detail is second to none & not only is her work incredible and creative, but she truly cares about her clients. She is so kind and helpful and a pleasure to work with. She’s gone out of her way multiple times to make sure we were satisfied (which we always are!) and has always followed up to see her work in its new home. We highly recommend her work to anyone wanting to bring a little piece of their favorite place into their daily lives.
Grace is an extremely gifted artist who cares about her clients. She creates incredible commissions and pieces, each unique, full of character and superior quality. I’m excited to watch her continue to grow, and expect phenomenal works from her in the future. If you are considering adding any of her work to your home or business, you will not be disappointed.
Gorgeous art!!
Such beautiful work! And love that you are so open talking about God!
Big fan of grace’s art, happy that instagram decided to have it pop up on my feed. Love the piece I purchased and will definitely be getting another in the near future. Highly recommend her work.
I stumbled upon Grace’s art a few years ago when she was just starting out. I never expected for my first purchase to blossom into the friendship it has. Her work is BEAUTIFUL and she created a custom piece along with a handwritten note for my mom when she had brain surgery. I can’t stress enough how special her pieces are to me.
I can’t say enough of how much I love Grace’s art. Not only are all her items amazing and unique but she is also super sweet and kind. My first purchase was right when I found out about her on Instagram in 2019 and I haven’t stopped getting things because they are all so beautiful and amaze me so much.
It’s incredible how her art reminds me of my love for the ocean and brings me so much joy.
