I
have been involved in various forms of art for as long as I can
remember. As a child, my wonderful mother encouraged my imagination,
balanced it with reality, and instilled in me the trait of sensibility.
(Thanks, Mom!) Before discovering polymer clay, I dabbled in various
crafts, painting, ceramics, sketching portraits, and arranging flowers.
One day in 1992, I was walking through Michael's and saw two books -
"Fimo Folk" and "Fimo Fantasies" by Maureen Carlson. I was
entranced... After a bit of manipulating the clay, suddenly a little
face full of personality was staring back at me! It
was an experience I will never forget. With its limitless possibilites,
polymer clay became my medium of choice.
I work full time at a "regular" job, have a wonderful family, and am so
fortunate to be surrounded by a perpetual menagerie of loving creatures
including horses, dogs, cats, ferrets, fish and whatever other furred,
feathered or swimming being winds up on my doorstep. I have been
blessed with a wonderful family, who are all very dear and supportive
of me and my sometimes "wacky" ways. Though my lifestyle can be
insanely hectic, I still
make time for my creativity, striving to perfect my artistry and bring
a little joy to the world.
Thank you for visiting me here and may all good things come to you.
