Sophia Grose

I am a multi-hyphenate entertainment artist with a passion for costume design, illustration, and direction! I am graduating with my BFA in Theatre Design from The University of Southern California in May 2023. Theatre, film, theme parks, drag, video games, and animation are my favorite hobbies and creative influences for my work! Above all else, I am a dreamer and always curious.

I believe in bringing life into all of my art and not being bound to one medium or title. I use my art to paint characters, scenes, and entire worlds to life by being specific and detail oriented but bringing a whimsical sense of discovery to all of my designs.

As an artist, I believe that entertainment is a collaborative and exciting happening that should touch its audiences in a variety of ways: sentimentally, funny-bone tickling, thrilling, and so much more. Any kind of entertainment should not be merely spectatorship, it should be an experience.

I am proud to be an artist and to be able to express myself in any way I choose.
