	Featured Art: by NAQG member Clare Wong Chinese Website English Translatied Website  A Note From the Artist  Hello, my name is Clare, I was born in Hong Kong and I am a Christian. I am married with 2 teenage girls.  I first learned about paper quilling in 2006 when I attended 4 one-hour quilling sessions at a craft shop.  I didn't even know the English name of the craft and was unable to do an internet search to find out more.  Quilling is very rarely found in Hong Kong and it is extremely difficult to find the necessary supplies or books.  I have to shred my own paper strips and make the tools myself.  My earliest projects were not very good and I turned to other handcrafts. In March 2008, when I was looking through a well-known on-line shop, I found that there were some quilling books available, and then found many quilling websites, which surprised me.  From the time I received my 3 quilling books, I�EUR(TM)ve been feverishly trying out everything.  Like all quillers, I enjoy quilling so much, that it keeps me busy 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! The images that I find in the quilling world on the internet help me a lot in improving my skills and techniques. They not only give me wonderful inspiration, but I am also able to make nice friendships through them. I gather my ideas from everyday life - from TV, magazines, window displays, story books, etc. I am so new at this, but I have plans to make quilling better known to the people of Hong Kong.  At first, I shared the fun of quilling with some friends and later taught some evening classes.  In October of last year, I set up a Chinese quilling website.  I was lucky that TV demonstrations on a local kids program early this year was an effective way to allow people to explore quilling. Without exception, I want each project to be a work of art - but most importantly, I hope that every project that I do serves to cheer up others. I want to impart a heart-felt touch of happiness, joy and even laughter to those who see it!
