Back to Polymer Clay

Published on February 25, 2011 in Polymer Clay. 0 Comments

This week my studio time will at least partially be devoted to polymer clay. I still love the medium but have been taking a sideways approach to creating with it.

I’ve been obsessively devoting time to making fabric collages- and then using those as inspiration for polymer clay jewelry. So my goal is to make a couple new collages and also start tackling the polymer pieces for fabric collages I already have.

Here’s one of my newer pieces. I’ll have these for sale in an ETSY shop in the next few weeks, along with a new line of jewelry.

And a brooch inspired by it

My goal to stop, calmly focus and appreciate the beauty of small daily pleasures continues. I’m doing  a bit of writing, a quick sketch, a photo, or trying out new techniques in my daily grid journal. It’s going well so far.

Some days it’s writing about a quote I hear or an event I enjoyed attending. Some days it’s a quick sketch of something I see on my morning exercise walk. And I finally have been cracking open some art books and experimenting a bit.

Here’s a couple pages from my grid journal.
