Dane Clement
Vice President and Creative Director, GroupeSTAHL North America
Dane Clement has become one of the most well-respected and recognized computer graphic artists in the garment decoration industry. As the president of Great Dane Graphics—the only stock art supplier to offer full color, high-resolution files for multiple garment decorating processes—he gained international recognition for his highly detailed, full-color artwork collections, now totaling 8 books. It was his artistic ability, creativity and garment decoration knowledge that caught the eyes and ears of GroupeSTAHL and led to his present position as Vice President of Art & Creative Process for GroupeSTAHL.
As a well-known industry educator who conducts seminars at Imprinted Sportswear Shows, DAX, and SGIA, Dane is also a regular columnist for multiple trade publications. He has taken his knowledge around the world as an international consultant, helping art departments work smoothly and efficiently. Valued for his artwork experience and expertise, Dane is also a respected judge for the Impressions Awards and the SGIA Golden Image Awards.
In 2008, he authored T-shirt Artwork Simplified, in Adobe and Corel, a how-to book on creating artwork for decorating apparel. He has created various training videos teaching how to handle the most common artwork related problems. He has written Artwork for Vinyl Cutting books, in both Adobe and Corel, that teaches how to create artwork that is easy, quick and efficient when producing heat printed designs.
He is currently wrapping up another training book, Artwork for DTG Printing, using Adobe Photoshop. These are two in a series of books scheduled to be released later this year.
