ABOUT

I’m Grace Sophia Young, a visual artist based in Los Angeles, originally from San Francisco. I specialize in realism, working primarily with oil, acrylic, gouache, charcoal, and colored pencil to create deeply observed, emotionally grounded pieces. My artistic practice is rooted in traditional methods and observational detail, often centering around still moments, personal photographs, or objects that carry a sense of presence. I’m especially drawn to capturing the intimacy of real subjects with precision and honesty, often working directly from client-provided photos or collaborating to develop custom compositions. Each piece is built to last — thoughtful, detailed, and meant to be lived with.
