Oil on canvas

Grace Kennedy-Panda is a San Francisco-based mixed-media painter, and alumna of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, University of Pennsylvania, and SF Ruth Asawa High School of the Arts. Grace works for her family's solar energy business and paints from her home studio. Grace's pieces have been shown at the DeYoung and PAFA Museums, and are currently held in private collections of California and the Northeast.

Mark making is a universal language, decoding complex emotions. Visual elements, sound, and movement, help articulate inner and outer landscapes. My work explores color dynamics and shape relationships to illustrate a fluid connection between psyche and observation for personal transformation. Although primarily abstract, my pieces often depict narratives from observation and memory to create immersive art spaces or stories. I use less-toxic mediums and recycled materials in my process.
