About Dean:

Hi, my name is Dean Hogg. Welcome to ‘Grease and Grace.’
We are comprised of the talents of two important ladies in my life: My daughter Deanna, and my wife Cindy (the Graces) & myself (the Grease.)
I have always been a ‘greaser’, probably because I was raised by one.

Owning many muscle cars through the years, I’m a longtime motor-head.
My current ride is a 1957 Ford Ranchero that I built myself.

In grade school I started drawing and never stopped.
Done as a youth in 8th grade. Dean’s gift for hot rod art began early.
My training was as a sign painter, now a niche art. I will pinstripe anything that isn’t nailed down & I do Von Dutch, Dean Jefferies, and Larry Watson style striping.

Making art out of horseshoes is something I really enjoy. It has become an obsession.
One can never have enough luck!
Hope you enjoy the art of Grease and Grace!

About Cindy
Cindy, of Grease and Grace Art in her pollinator garden.
Hi, my name is Cindy Hogg. Welcome to Grease and Grace. We are a compilation of the artistic talents of my husband Dean (the Grease,) my lovely step-daughter Deanna, and myself (the Graces.)

I was into art and nature at an early age. An idealistic child of the 60’s and early 70’s, I was always reveling in nature and drawing trees, birds and flowers.
Cindy enjoyed camping when she was a young girl.
I learned to paint from an accomplished local artist who gave art lessons in her home. My interest continued through high school where I took every art elective offered. A supportive art teacher inspired me to go to college. I didn’t finish college in one shot. I took a detour, raised a family, then went back almost 20 yrs. later. What a culture shock!
My ideals and style have remained pretty constant through the years. I have a great respect for nature and enjoy painting on almost anything, walls, furniture, driftwood, slate, feathers, barn siding, antiques, tire covers, and occasionally the traditional canvas.

Though life gets busy, my late grandmother’s words ring in my ears as a reminder, “Honey, you have to keep painting; God gave you this gift to use it.”

About Deanna
The idea for ‘Grease and Grace’ began over a period of years when I had many conversations with my dad and step-mom about starting a business combining all of our artistic skills. Then one day we decided to stop talking and start doing.

My style ranges from the rockabilly pinup scene, to botanical, and spiritual themes. Therefore, you’ll find quite a variety of items in my repertoire.
