I draw my inspiration from the many cultural landscapes of my life-path. Born in Belgium, I have lived in the Middle-East, Morocco, Canada and the UK. After a career in healthcare computing in Canada and Europe, I now devote my creativity to art and writing.

My jewellery pieces are made mostly from polymer clay, a synthetic compound consisting of PVC and plasticisers imparting malleability to the clay. I prefer to use nontinted clay which I infuse with pigments. This affects the chemical properties of the clay, allowing me to push the possibilities of the medium further to achieve more subtle color and texture effects. The potential of polymer clay as an artistic medium has yet to be unlocked and I am excited at working at the forefront to shape its future.

I have sold internationally, in Canada, Belgium and the UK. My clients include the Artshop at the Musées Royaux des Beaux Arts de Belgique.

This piece and two others have made the finals in the jewellery category at Progress and Possibilities '08, a competition organised by the Internaltional Polymer Clay Association.
