About the Artist
Maude resides in Louisville, KY with her pooch, Emma. We share a little hobbit home we have surrounded with flowers...nary one blade of grass! While it was my parents who taught me to enjoy what I do and do it well; it is Emma who insists that I leave the "clay factory" and walk and play with her every day!

Heron Purse
7.25" diameter, 1.5 deep
Leather straps; Chicago screws, brass hinge, and rare earth magnets
The texture of the heron's feathers contrasts with the silky, smooth finish of the swirling mokume gane background which brings to mind a watery marsh. Weight is one pound eight ounces. Two leather straps included. Chicago screws mean this handbag converts easily to a shoulder bag.

Peeking Into My Garden 1
To be carried every day, this purse holds all the necessities, while lightweight and extremely durable. While talking about my gardens in Louisville with my three year old granddaughter, I pictured an insect's view. Just had to try to make it! My purse would not be possible without the class at Creative Journey Studio in GA with the remarkable Kathleen Dustin. Materials: Polymer clay and liquid polymer clay for purse body, brass hinge with brass screws, leather strap, rare earth magnet closure. Dimensions: 7" wide, 3" deep, 4.5" tall
