Claire Heminsley graduated from Glasgow School of Art having specialised in textiles. Since then she has worked freelance trading as Incahoots. She works in textile and illustration to commission and for exhibition and sells in the UK, USA and Europe.
Funding from the Scottish Arts Council has enabled her to move in new directions, experimenting with digital print techniques on fabric. "Materials I like to work with include: cloth, paint, papers, plastic, metal, thread, scraper board, materials that I find in bins or materials that are old and precious, oil bars, ink, graphite..."
"Some things that inspire me and that I love are: living in the country - but not being too far from the city(!), drawing, Paul Klee, pattern, Mark Rothko, artist's books, watching people, 20th century design, traditional embroidery, stories, flowers, other people's drawings, graphics, ceramics, gardens, being with people, being on my own."
This range of work was partly inspired by Claire's relationship with her late father, the ceramicist David Heminsley.
