Instructor: Grace Mae Huddleston
In this workshop students will sketch a 4-panel comic in the style of your choosing in response to the provided prompt or about their own chosen topic. Then they will use provided art supplies (or can bring their own) to add shading, solid color, and text. Finally, students will learn to use the Risograph machine to scan and print multiple copies of their comic page in the single color of their choosing. If time allows, we will bind all the pages together using the spiral binder and each student will go home with a book of everyone’s comics!
Grace Mae Huddleston (she/they) is a multi-media artist and educator based in Richmond, VA. She has taught for 10 years in community centers, schools, and universities. As an educator, Grace empowers adults and teens of all skill levels to deepen their connection to art making. Her teaching emphasizes skill building and creativity, and she loves it when students put personality into their creations! Grace primarily teaches all things 2D, including drawing, painting, and mixed media. In her own art practice, Grace creates colorful prints, drawings, paintings, and textiles. Nature is her main inspiration, but art history, film, and comics also influence her work. She has shown and published her art in contexts ranging from zines and academic journals, to punk cafes and formal concert halls, as well as galleries and museums. Grace is a recipient of the Russell Foundation Grant and the VCUarts Inclusive Grant. Website: gracemaehuddleston.art Instagram: by.gracemae
