'SUNSHINE ON A RAINY DAY' - Majolica Glazed Ceramic

BIOGRAPHY

Born into an artist family and growing up in postwar Munich Germany, my life was surrounded by art from the start. My father was a sculptor, he worked in stone and my mother painted flowers. Taken at a young age to Art Museums and Galeries gave me from childhood on a tremendous appreciation for Fine Arts and deep respect for the artist.

Nevertheless I needed to learn that even my many travels, either to Europe's vibrant cities, across the Atlantic to the American continent, or to the hidden islands of the Pacific didnt help me to find the slumbering Artist within.

It was not until I met my wonderful husband Jeff Hukill, a great Artist and Painter, whose steady encouragement inspired me to enroll and take a sculpture class. There I found I LOVED CLAY and immediately it became my medium.

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