Layl McDill grew up in Gillette, Wyoming where she began creating at a very young age. Her early works were dollhouses, marionettes and even an entire “Smurf Village”. Layl received her BFA in Illustration from the Columbus College of Art Design but she found it more exciting to make sculptural work and sell it through galleries and art fairs. She has exhibited her work around the country since 1994. Polymer clay has been her medium of choice using the millefiori technique and mixed media materials added. The theme of wonderment permeates her sculptures that are covered with endless details. She uses themes of animals and nature to explore the ways we interact with the environment. Her work can also be found in numerous books and publications.
Dress up the wall with a colorful patterned switch plate made with polymer clay. Layl will teach you how to layer the colors of your choice together to make magical designs in clay. Then slice up the clay to make three dimensional stickers for the switch plate you would like to cover. You will take your creations home to bake them in your own oven to cure.
