About the Artist
HI, I’M LAURA, THE ARTIST BEHIND LITTLE CLAY LAND!
I’m a clay-loving girl in a clay world! At eight years old, I started making miniatures from polymer clay - tiny food, animals, people, fairies - if I could imagine it, I could make it! As I got older, my work as a painter and illustrator took my focus, but I never forgot my love of tiny things. Clay and I were reunited a few years ago, when I started to make little clay characters for my nieces and nephews. At the encouragement of family and friends, I was soon selling clay illustrations and custom clay portraits as Little Clay Land. I think everyone has that same little eight-year-old kid living somewhere inside, and Little Clay Land is where I go to let her out!
