Hello all and welcome to Shastin Grace Art + Design. This is the home of my illustration, design and art portfolio.
I currently live on the beautiful island of Kaua‘i where I create all of my art from the natural inspirations all around me. I am seeking work from all over in illustration and design. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. Aloha.
Here are my favorite sketches from this week. I blended several day’s sketches together as one:
Hello everyone, here are some of my sketches from this last week… Again I find myself getting very busy so that is why I am posting a little late this time… Anyway I am making an effort to come up with some more ideas for larger finished works of art so that I can put [...]
So this last week has had a few ups and downs for me… Like one moment I remember feeling fully euphoric, like I couldn’t contain all the love and joy I felt and the next… BAM!, feeling totally depressed that I am not fully aligning with what I am passionate about—what I feel is my [...]
Aloha everyone, so in my last post I challenged myself to do at least two imaginative pieces rather than the life sketches I usually do. I actually did four imaginative pieces over the past two weeks, but I wasn’t too fond of any of them although a couple may have some potential for becoming ideas [...]
Hello Everyone, here are my favorite drawings from this week, one of which I already posted on my facebook page.

Here are my favs from this week. It’s been raining quite a lot here on Kaua‘i but I welcome it because for me the rain brings inspiration and new growth. The first is just a simple geometry piece of Metatron’s Cube I did in brown ink. Technical drawings are not my strong point, but I [...]
Hello all, well I was hoping to get this one finished this week but it just didn’t happen. Part of that was indecisiveness on my part since I first drew this as a nude woman swimming with dolphins and then decided to make her a mermaid… Now I have no idea how I want to [...]
Here are two sketches from this week. I really didn’t have any favorites. I got swamped with work this week and I’m just trying to keep up with everything! The top sketch is from Kekaha sunset and the one on the bottom is of a local tree. I like drawing trees. Aloha til next week!
Well, I got behind on my posting again but I have been faithful to draw everyday! Here are my favorite pieces from last week. The first, is actually a mini paint study I did in acrylic of a breadfruit (ulu) and apple bananas. After the painting I baked an amazing breadfruit chocolate cake. If you [...]
This week was a bit busy but I have still been keeping up with my drawing everyday. Here are my favorites from this week. The first one is a sketch of Secrets Beach, which I drew from the lookout above the Kilauea Lighthouse. The second and third are just simple sketches of my food: Coconut [...]
