After many years in the Art Glass industry fabricating, etched, fused and stained glass commissions, I wanted to find a different creative outlet working on a smaller scale. I took my first class in Silver Metal Clay, to say I was hooked in an understatement. I found working in a creative environment with others, sharing talents, skills, and lover for tools and the material and creating to be fun and rewarding experience. I love to share this enthusiasm in my teaching, with this medium it is wonderful to know that someone with no experience can create a beautiful one of a kind piece the very first time.
After taking several Art Clay Silver classes I decided to become a Level One Instructor, to gain the additional level of knowledge and to be equipped to share this knowledge with others. I also work with Art Clay Copper and find this medium to be an additional medium to create with for a totally different look. |
