Cecilia Buchanan
I was a ballet dancer with Scottish Ballet and danced professionally until I was 27. After retiring, I did a course in ornamental plaster work, during which I discovered a love for sculpting with clay. While my children were at school I took sculpting classes and have now been sculpting for over 10 years.
I like to work fast and freely, keeping as much of the original clay markings as possible and not over refining the detail. My work often has poise, even when it's not really intended to, which is possibly a throwback from my dancing years!
