I am a self-taught polymer clay artist, wife, mother of 3 and grandmother of 7.  I was a stay at home mom for most of the time until I went back to school for Math Education.  I worked for several years as an algebra instructor.  I "retired" from teaching about 3 years ago and began learning different crafts.  I tried several different type crafts but once I picked up a chunk of clay, I never went back to anything else.  The clay is a magical substance.  It is very therapeutic along with forms it can take on.  It is limitless...only to your imagination.  I started watching tutorials on YouTube.com and began to improve my different techniques.  I now have a website, facebook page and sell my dolls and sculptures online and at various craft shows.
