Hi, I’m Laura, the artist behind Little Clay Land!
I’m a clay-loving girl in a clay world! At eight years old, I started making miniatures from polymer clay - tiny food, animals, people, fairies - if I could imagine it, I could make it! As I got older, my work as a painter and illustrator took my focus, but I never forgot my love of tiny things. Clay and I were reunited a few years ago, when I started to make little clay portraits as gifts for my friends who were getting married and having kids. As I began posting them online for fun, people wanted to buy them, and I was soon selling clay illustrations and custom clay portraits as Little Clay Land. I think everyone has that same little eight-year-old kid living somewhere inside, and Little Clay Land is where I go to let her out!
I believe the people in our lives are worth celebrating, and I love using my clay to help people show their love to each other!

Jamie Grace is a singer who I respect so much - following her journey through her openness about mental health and abstinence in singleness has inspired and encouraged me.
She recently got married and her story is a beautiful account of following God through the hard and exciting in life. I’m so happy she shared it with the world!
