As crazy as life can get, sometimes it’s real nice to just stop for a few minutes and look at something pretty. I see monarch butterflies as roses and skulls and crossbones linked as lace. I work through this world by exploring the flower form in polymer clay and gemstones. Our world is full of amazing people and significant moments. I get jazzed by hand sculpting flowers that connect with people in a personal and unexpected way. Flowers that go with memories that will last forever.

Ann Duncan Hlavach picked up polymer in the 1990s and never put it down. In 2002 by special request she made her first wedding bouquet. A steady stream of requests for flowers followed. Ann’s love for the emerging medium grew as she searched to learn more. Finding others who were as fascinated, taking workshops with the masters, attending conferences and symposiums. Ann has immersed herself in perfecting a plethora of techniques to manipulate polymer clay into patterns and petals.
