Hello!! I’m Grace :)

….but my dearest family calls me Qiqi, hence the name of this website!

Those around me often say I was born with a pencil in one hand and a sketchbook in the other, and it’s probably true: even the earliest childhood photos depict me engrossed in my latest masterpiece. But beyond simply a hobby of mine, art has also allowed me to speak up for what I believe in. As a young artist, I’ve had the opportunity to raise awareness about issues I care about, such as wildlife preservation and supporting my local community. For me, art has been and will always be my superpower, and I hope to continue to utilize my love and skills to ignite change. In this process, I’ve also been able to build community and share my love for art with others, whether it be fellow artists or those who simply enjoy witnessing the beauty of art. As I continue growing as an artist, I hope to engage with this passion in a way that brings others joy while leaving them with something meaningful to remember.

Outside of art, I am a student at Lakeside School in Seattle. When I’m not working on my latest masterpiece or finishing up my homework, you can find me playing tennis, practicing piano, and baking or eating delicious treats!
