Greg Grady Jr

Greg J. Grady (G2) is a New Hampshire native, a self-taught artist and a 2nd generation sand sculptor. What started as a hobby on summer vacations as a young child has turned into following in the footsteps of his father. His Irish luck would have him apprenticing under the world’s best sand sculptors, playing in the biggest of sand boxes, and traveling to beaches across the country. A passion for sand had turned into a career over the last decade. Greg has made sand sculptures for just about every event imaginable, from the simple but very important wedding proposal, to the largest of corporate events, to being a part of successful attempts at setting Guinness World Records.
A honed talent and love for creating has expanded to working with other mediums over the years such as snow, wood, foam, stone, pumpkins and more. ItsJUstSand.com
