About Me

Hello and Welcome !

My name is Amy Driscoll and I live in a small town in Ohio with my husband and my

three boys (Josh ~ 17, Nick ~ 14 and Luke ~ 9).

 

I've always enjoyed arts and crafts and have tried many different things.  I get together once a month with my Mom and my sister for "craft day" in which we do all sorts of crafts.  

 

I started with Tole Painting in 1999 and cut all my own wood for my projects to begin with.  I joined The Heart of Ohio Tole Chapter (HOOT) and painted everything and anything.  I learned so much.

 

I always liked polymer clay and started making some whimsical things and really enjoyed the medium.  Then one day,  I was on Ebay I came across some of the most amazing polymer clay sculpted dolls.  I just had to try to make one.  I had no idea where to start so I searched the web and bought some books (Katherine Dewey's Sculpting Life-like Animals).  I thought I'd better start with something a little easier than people.  I loved it!  Then searching further I found some amazing DVD's from Patricia Rose.  I made a couple mermaids and a fairy...they were terrible....LOL.  I decided I couldn't do it, so I quit for 3 years and then, began searching Ebay OOAK's again and just had to try again.  So I started again and worked harder and took more time with each one and found that I could do it and with practice and determination, (and with the amazing help from the OOAK Doll Art Forum) have improved.  Now there is no stopping me.  I love it!  It's so incredible to see what comes out of a piece of clay.

If you are interested in buying a piece, please let me know.
