Side Trip




So, I have taken a side trip to play a bit with polymer clay. Mostly because I want to add some relief to my work and think that this is a way to create it. I am in the learning stages right now but have created some wonderful slabs to us later in my work. Next I'm going to try stamping designs into the clay and then painting on it. These will be cut up and added to my first mixed media piece. Stay tuned for more.

Inspiration at the Georgia Aquarium

I saw some of the most amazing sights at the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta Georgia. They made me want to come home and try to recreate them in cloth. Nothing to post yet but keep watching. I just know that there is a piece of art here someplace.




The jellyfish are my favorite and I have tried for years to decide what fabrics would work best for replicating them. Any suggestions would be great.
