About me
Well... what can I say? My name is Gill (obviously!) and I have been a Polymer Clay artist for about 40 years (time does fly when you're having fun!) I started working with Fimo (brand of clay) whilst I was working at a special school for young children who suffered from a visual impairment. One of the children brought the clay to school after the Christmas holidays, and we made all sorts of wonderful things... and that's how I became hooked! Over the years I have worked alongside some amazing children and adults and had the opportunity to create some stunning pieces of art... one of which was for the Bishop of Manchester! I absolutely LOVE my job which gives me so much pleasure, joy and a real sense of satisfaction.
