Those who know me know that I like to incorporate unusual materials in my work (concrete, meteorite, blue jeans...). So, when invited to teach a silversmithing workshop at a polymer clay conference I couldn’t say no...
but I did have to learn more about the art form that uses polymer clay.
What did I learn?
Let’s just say it has come a long way from playing with it at the kitchen table when my son was 9. In the right hands it is just another medium to be used to create great art.
So plunging into the deep end I have added it to my creative tool box as another element. And I am honored to be teaching at the Cabin Fever Clay Fest alongside some great artists like Lindly Haunani and Jeffrey Lloyd Dever. These folk make poly-clay stand on its head and sing!
