What do you love about Art Clay??
I love the endless possibilities
Art Clay has to offer. I am
constantly exploring new ideas
in working with the medium. I
work on several projects at one
time, each one has its own path
which can lead me to new and
wonderful discoveries.

What are your favorite Art Clay
projects/creations?
I don't have one favorite
project or creation. I enjoy the
journey I go thru in creating
each piece. I learn so much
along the way, there's always
positive and negative outcomes.
Surprises are always welcomed in
my studio...............they
keep me moving forward.

What other media do you work
and/or teach in?
I enjoy creating and designing
with seed beads and fire polish
beads. In the last couple of
years I have designed and taught
about forty beaded bracelets. I
have been incorporating Art Clay
and beads into some of my
designs. I also enjoy designing
with wire. I had a wonderful
instructor, Lynn Merchant,
greatly revered as the guru
master in wire work. I have
taken the art of wire work into
my own style and have combined
it with Art Clay. I have
explored many other art forms
like fashion design,
photography, printmaking,
silver-smithing, life drawing. I
love art, always have, always
will.

Biography:
I have been working with metal
clay since 1998. From the first
class I took, I fell in love
with this medium, I knew I had
to learn more, I took my level
one and level two (now senior
certification) right away. In
the past four years I assisted
Art Clay World, USA at several
of the major national shows,
including Bead & Button, Glass
Expo, Tucson Gem Show, Beadfest,
Bead Expo, Puget Bead Show, and
HIA. I enjoyed meeting all the
wonderful people while
demonstrating make and takes. It
has been a pleasure speaking
with so many people about this
exciting medium. It's always
thrilling to see the excitement
on the faces of the students as
they brush the white surface
from their creation, to reveal
the gleam of silver. Personal
history - small town girl -
eldest of nine.

Philosophy:
I believe there is art in
all of us, we all have
different ways to express
ourselves. To me, art comes
in many forms; it's
unlimited.

Awards:
Awards are a nice form of
recognition, but the love of
creating something from
nothing is very rewarding. |
