Artist Bio: 

Sarranda "Sam", to everyone who knows her has always been interested in rocks and has collected them since she was little. In 1998, she rediscovered fossils thought the Norman Wells Fossil Hunt and has kept it going since that time. She has accumulated many fossils over the years and has received many of them from people as they were moving out of Norman Wells. In 2000, she discovered the art of rock polishing when her father bought her a rock-polishing machine. With all the rocks that she had accumulated over the years, he felt that she should do something with them. Sam is self-taught and has read many books on the subject. She has now incorporated Polymer and Arts Clays into her work.
