Grace's Giclee Art Print Shop Winning in Devon

November 14, 2023

Grace Middleton, who co-founded Grace’s Giclee Art Print Shop with me in Exmouth earlier this year, has won the Devon Women in Business Female Start-Up of the Year Award 2023.  

 

Grace and I came together to create a premium quality giclee art print and postcard printing service for artists and illustrators. As my former Kickstart Apprentice, Grace took over the running of my online retail operations until I moved to Sussex last year.  

As my time was channelled into creating new artwork for retailers around the world, I had little time to devote to the running of my online shop and processing orders and so I asked Grace if she would come back on board, but as partner.  With Grace running the day-to-day operations, I drew on my many years of business experience to mentor her and together, we have made Grace’s Giclee Art Print Shop an incredible success.

As two female creatives, we bring a wealth of experience to a high quality, printing service as well as online retail management for other artists and illustrators that would like to monetize their art whilst retaining the integrity of their brand: We make Your Passion Pay!

Grace says: “I am delighted to have received the Start-Up of the Year award from Devon Women in Business! It was such an amazing event, with many inspiring and empowered female entrepreneurs in the room. I’d like to thank everyone who has supported Grace’s Giclee Art Print Shop since we opened in February 2023. This award is testament to the hard work and dedication that I have put into the business, and I am so grateful for this personal recognition.”

It is indeed an amazing achievement for Grace and so well deserved. She has worked so hard and grown immeasurably over the last year. And to celebrate her accolade, Grace is giving away 25% off all printing (art prints, greeting cards and postcards) for Black Friday weekend with code BF23 at checkout.
