Ursula Clamer

I'm a daughter, sister, wife and mother of two who loves to create.

I live in Sydney, Australia.

I'm married to a wonderful Englishman with whom I have had two lively and beautiful children.

I am a work in progress!

....and I love to create.
More than 12 years ago I began to dabble in rubberstamping and cardmaking. In 1999 we bought our first house and just up the road was a great little shop that did handmade wedding invitations. I began working Saturdays there, and being tired of corporate life I eventually left that to work more hours at the shop. In 2001, 3 months before my first child was born I had to give up working there as my stomach was too big for me to reach the table! I then started having some of my work published in 'Stamping & Papercraft' and 'Australian PaperCrafts' magazines. In 2004, when my second child was one, I began teaching at another local shop and stayed there for just over a year. Now I do payroll & bookkeeping a few days a week for a fabulous local cafe restuarant.

I have taken classes at local community colleges in drawing, writing and mixed media.

My creative interests have broaden and, whenever I get the chance, I like to create mixed media pieces, collages, pieces on canvas, Altered books/photos/objects, and work in my Journals. I want to venture into assemblages, and am dusting off my sewing skills.

I mainly use Acrylics (particuarly Golden Products), but have adventures in to most of the other art mediums.
