Hi there, my name is Gracie!
I'm an illustrator, ceramicist and curator based in South Wales. I have spent most of my life working in Museums, fitting my creative pursuits into my day whenever I can.
​
I enjoy working digitally and with traditional media to create illustrations inspired by literature and nature. My aim is to create cosy, welcoming illustrations full of colour and whimsy.
​
Ceramics allows me to bringing my original characters and illustrations to life in a 3D way. I primarily hand-build pieces using intuitive making to let the clay guide the final design.
​
I teach beginner hand building pottery workshops at Cabalva Ceramics, getting to share this wonderful practice with others.
​
Alongside my illustration and ceramics I work as an Assistant Museum Curator. In this role I have the opportunity to curate and design exhibitions, publicity materials and public events.
​
If you would be interested in working with me, through a commission or longer-term design or publicity projects, get in touch at gp.magnifyingart@gmail.com
