Tutor: Clare Grace

Join artist Clare Grace in the first Toolkit session of our spring/summer 2017 course programme! Clare is a printed textile designer who has just moved into a WYPW studio. Over the last 33 years Clare Grace has taught at various Art Schools in Yorkshire and Lancashire, including Leeds College of Art, Wakefield College and Batley School of Art, as well as working as a freelance designer.

“My work is painterly and colourful, it looks at social and political messages expressed in applied art. In this session I will show you some of my latest collections and how I take them through into print using hand produced Kodatraces. I will also demonstrate registration methods when screen printing onto a textile print table for placement and repeated pattern.”

These 1 hour morning sessions will focus on technique, practice and making, and will comprise of practical demonstrations and talks led by practising artists and printmakers. The sessions are intended to encourage, inspire, and generate ideas and conversation about printmaking, so don’t be afraid to ask questions! Both members and non-members are welcome to attend. If you are not a member, or indeed a printmaker, they can act as taster sessions to show you just what printmaking is all about. If you are a member, the sessions can offer valuable hints and tips to help further your printmaking practise, or introduce you to a new technique.
