On a personal leverl, my claying skills are developing slowly.
'My experiments with Ikat - such a satisfying piece'
'Pardo Professional Art Clay has such brilliant translucent - these beads are made using a technique from Donna Kato's book.'

I have been experimenting with covering tins. These tins have a plastic centre on the lid so I had to find a way of decorating the lid without putting it into the oven. My inspiration came from tins produced by Bonnie McGough
And having made literally hundreds of beads since discovering polymer clay I decided it was time I did something with them. You may recognise the inspiration from Donna Kato on the medium sized beads.
