Like many artists I enjoy a mix of technology and grass roots creativity. After many years in the painting and exhibiting world I have recently opted for a different balance. I am dipping my toes into the world of smaller more intimate pieces and trialing a different medium. Creating Air-Dry Clay art pieces is my new focus. This blog is documenting my journey on a piece by piece level each one evolving from the next.
