Medium: Clay

Born into an artist family and growing up in postwar Munich Germany, my life was surrounded by art from the start.

Nevertheless I needed to learn that even my many many travels, either to Europe’s vibrant Cities, or across the Atlantic to the American Continent, or to the hidden islands of the Pacific didn’t help me to find the slumbering Artist within.

It was not until I met my wonderful husband Jeff Hukill a great artist and painter, who’s steady encouragement inspired me to enroll and take a sculpture class. There I could find out that I LOVED CLAY – immediately it became my medium.

I was so fortunate to study under the knowledgeable sculpturer Carol Cook and to this day under the generous guidance of my beloved Professor Marty Ray at NLC where I received the Best of Show award at the 2010 Student Show.

It was like a divine hand had striked a match and ignited the flame – and now the fire of being an artist is burning brightly in my heart.
