Gloria's Butterflies Cluster

While looking at the ACC 2013 show presenters list, which took place in Atlanta at the same time with Synergy conference, I stumbled upon a polymer clay artist name that was new to me (and I think I know most of them), Gloria Danvers. The piece shown as a thumbnail next to her name was a lovely butterflies canes necklace. According to her she is using link chains to form a bib, and then cover it with butterfly wings. It is her interpretation of the way butterflies clustering on trees during migration.

I have been in the ACC show several times before, when Synergy took place in Baltimore and it is a must show for every artist in any medium.

Sari's polymer clay masks

Sari Lin from Israel is a long time friend and polymer clay colleague. I had the pleasure of being her teacher for several technique classes and we continued our polymer clay friendship through the internet and on Facebook. In her recent creations she is playing with faux knitting to create polymer clay masks. Here is another version of masks in a different color/technique.

Sari is mad about pens which are always on demand among her friends, family and customers and loves to play with different techniques. Even though she is dealing with multiple sclerosis for many years, she is choosing the more colorful side of life and found polymer clay to be her best chosen medium. One of her recent creations is a LaserCut bracelet after taking Jana Benzon's workshop recently given in Israel.
