    Artist Statement

​

​

I think of art as an expression of my soul.  I love working with polymer clay.  In my experience, it allows me greater control over details to express the emotions I wish to portray.  Then comes the final touches of dressing the figures using beautiful fabrics and trims.   And finally, the figure appears, sometimes far from what I had envisioned.  It is almost as though my soul wanted to keep it a secret.....

​

Figurative Artistry has brought such joy into my life, I so wish to inspire people with my characters and help preserve this beautiful form of art for generations to come...
