A Glimpse of Grace

Grace Jones, artist, designer, and interior decorator, notable not so much for what she discovered of color, beauty, and balance as for how she used her talent. From her base in the Pacific Northwest, she chose clients of diverse natures and helped them achieve the harmony they sought. Along the way, they shared insights, understanding, and lots of laughter. Many lives were enlarged. Grace was born in the Victorian era of British parents. In childhood, she almost lost herself under pressure to live dutifully and selflessly. She recovered with the help of her adventurous yet wise mother who showed her how to combine creed and creativity. Support came, too, from a man uniquely devoted to her from age 18 to 83. Nobody saw more clearly how Grace touched many lives than the author, her niece and adopted daughter.
