Polymeri Online 2.11.11 | Ghost Shift Fish, Kyoto Geikos mix media, Fimo tutorials & Autumn bracelet
I stumbled upon Sue Corrie's polymer clay and copper designs and was enchanted! This wonderful fish done with both materials is a refreshing combination and the possibilities are endless. When she thought to give up on being a full time artist she fell in love with polymer clay. Her projects are often completed in the moonlight hours when the family is sleeping- the Ghost Shift. She says ‘Dr Who’ fans know that the Ghost Shift was, I'm sure my son does!
Sharon House from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada loves to clay, as a mixed media artist she entered into Fine Arts Shows and lately have had accepted into a local gallery. Among her many talents she is also a story teller, not just for kids, for grown ups as well! It took her a while to find her passion with clay and few years into it, she is starting to figure that out. Much to her surprise, it’s not caning but more sculpture and what she would consider “practical stuff”.
You're invited to take a look at her cool "toothpick bead tool" - wonderful to bake or to dry your beads after varnish!

"Autumn in Scottish Mountains" bracelet by Czech Katerina Tumova has wonderful pattern inside. She has made an additional brooch with the same technique, almost looks like wooden design.

ReplyDeleteHave a Happy Birthday and 40 is just a number!
ReplyDeleteWait, this is yesterday's post, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I know, 40 is a bit tough, but after 4 months I'm almost accustomed to it, you'll be as well, the important thing is not letting a stupid number get to you + in your mind you're not 40 yet, right? Well, me neither ;) So happy 27th birthday and have a great time in the neighbourhood Italy :D
