A walk along the beach is not just a walk along the beach for Gillian Connor. It is a treasure hunt! She never knows what she may find or what it will eventually become. She has worked from her Hampshire studio since 2001 where she is surrounded by piles of driftwood, boxes of plastic, glass, rusty metal, old rope and fishing floats. These are all materials that inspire her to create all kinds of boats and some very strange sea creatures! She does it because she loves it, its eco friendly and makes people smile! Her hand tools become an extension of her imagination and she can spend endless hours looking for that perfect piece of glass or just the right rusty nail. Her work has been in many galleries and exhibitions.
