Meet Susan of Fantasy Clay

Susan, of Fantasy Clay on ArtFire.com is a fellow member of the Polymer Clay Smooshers Guild and an absolutely amazing artist.  When it comes to sculpting fantasy pieces she and I often think along the same lines.  Susan has been working with polymer clay for 10 years now and like many of us, her workspace has taken over much  of the house. 
Susan says "I love clay, I let it guide me to where I should be going. I love the small details and adding personality to all I make.I really enjoy just fiddling, even doodling with clay but nothing is so cool when I make a big project that also includes lots of tiny details."  You can definitely see that personality come out in each piece she creates.  Her sculptures always make me smile- they're just so full of character and whimsy. She's always creating new pieces and trying different things too.  She's so inspirational within the guild, and a very active member.  Her blog is always a great read, and I've picked up some great tips for polymer clay from Susan.  You can check out all her great pictures on Flickr, follow her on Facebook and Twitter, and check her out on IndiePublic
Below are just a few of my favorite things from her shop, but you really have to browse all her entire shop.  She has so many unique and wonderful creations- you wouldn't want to miss a thing!
