Tere's first attempt with polymer clay was in high school, when she used the original white Sculpey. "I loved the fact that I could bake this clay and make something that would last. The only problem was that it was white, and paint didn't adhere well to it." Those first polyclay pieces were to be the beginning of a life long love of polymer clay. After high school, Tere went on to study art in college. Her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from had a specialization in advertising and graphic design, but also covered all of the other fine art classes including ceramics, sculpture and 3-D design. These basics in translating an object from what one sees into a piece of art have helped Tere in her current ventures in art. Prior to the her recent efforts with polymer clay, Tere worked in ceramic and porcelain clays, learning hand building techniques and wheel-thrown work. Her first gallery exhibit was works in ceramic, shown at Masterson Design in the River Oaks area of Houston. More recent works have been in polymer clay as she concentrates on scale miniatures.
