Patricia Grayston, BSc, BEd, BFA -great distinction

Pat Grayston is a retired high school teacher. She had been doing and learning about art during that time in summer and evening classes. Upon retirement she attended the University of South Australia for 1 year, then returned to the University of Saskatchewan to complete her BFA. In 2003, she moved the barn her father had built to her home and had a printing press installed in the loft. Pat produced intaglio and reduction wood cuts. She also had a pit dug for pit fired pottery. She produced naked raku and horse hair pottery since 2003, and was a juried member of the Saskatchwan Craft Council.
In recent years, due to an illness, Pat has switched to fabric, producing botanicals, cyanotypes, print pastes from natural dyes and indigo, both bound and stitch resist.
She lives just north of Shellbrook on hwy #55, with her red studio on the river hill being a landmark.
