THIS IS ME

Welcome to the clay creation adventure of a bear (BG), a dog (ZEE) and me, Kris.

We live in Belper, Derbyshire, middle England and we have a simple aim and that's to make things I enjoy and to be able to share them with others in the hope that they will enjoy them too.

It's really quite fun, now I'm older, to have the creative freedom, experience and courage to embrace just being me and doing what makes me smile.

It probably looks like I have fallen into my second childhood, but really I don't think I ever left my first. The fantasy world of imaginary crazy creatures, weird characters and silliness has always been my idea of fun.

Having worked for many years in the serious side of the creative industry, studying then working in Graphic Design, it's great to be able to create just what I like.

I have always spent time drawing and painting, but it was only during the covid lockdown that I began to play with polymer clay and now sculpting has given me a whole new way to express my ideas.

Each creation I make starts as a scribble and then morphs into something quite different when I pick up the clay. Because they are all hand sculpted I am able to give them their own unique details, making no two pieces the same. Giving each one the charm and personality to be perfectly imperfect.
