Your life is your story, Make it a good one. When designing an art piece it's important to captivate a viewer and customer not only by creating something beautiful but also by telling a story, setting a mood and connecting that person to a place. With my Art Clay creations, the story often starts with my own in collecting a sea glass piece on a beach and connecting someone else to that place and story, allowing the story to extend to their own memories and experience. I love that metal clay allows for this expression with endless possibilities for artistic creativity. With Art Clay I have a wonderful medium to work with as well as support and encouragement for sharing and teaching others. I was so fortunate to have found my instructor, Marilyn Cook, through Art Clay and look forward to the opportunity to teach others this amazing art that inspired me to take classes with her. When you find something that you are truly passionate about it is important and enjoyable to pass on that knowledge to others so that they might do the same. I am thankful to Art Clay and my instructor for teaching me and I look forward to teaching others. |
