A course by Grace Frösén
Grace Frösén is a self-taught hand-lettering and doodle artist from the Philippines. Growing up, she was always fascinated by letters, typography, and cartoons, but it wasn’t until years later she realized it was a career option. After moving to Finland and beginning her search for a corporate job, she turned to her love for art as a hobby to fill her spare time. From there, she spent time honing her craft through reading and observing others online and eventually started to post her own designs on Instagram in 2016.
Since then, she’s developed an audience of over 260K followers on Instagram, sold her work internationally, and collaborated with clients including Chameleon Art Products, Zoot, UN World Food Programme, and Huawei Mobile.
