Despite local schools being out for several weeks now, and the June heading on the calendar, it hasn’t felt like summer quite yet.

So, I went looking through the tutorial archives and found this butterfly wing tutorial by Alan Vernall.  Just the thing to try for bringing a bit of summer to a grey, rainy day!

  1. I am privileged to own some of Alan’s work, including a butterfly and dragonfly. His work was always creative and fun. I was sad to hear (from one of our friends) of Alan’s passing. He was a dear man and will be missed, but never forgotten.

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

POP! – Perspectives on Polymer

Contemporary Craft is thrilled to be hosting POP! – Perspectives on Polymer June 25-29, 2022.  A five-day celebration of contemporary work in polymer, the event will have something for everyone who loves polymer clay.  POP! will feature four workshops along with virtual talks by some of the best polymer artists in the country, an exhibition of small works in polymer, and a curated feature in the Store. The opening reception will be held on Saturday, June 25, 6-8 PM, and will be free and open to the public.

POP!’s focus on workshops and the materiality of polymer makes this boutique event more than just a conference. Each participating artist was selected for their unique perspectives on polymer and the exciting ways they are moving the medium forward. The featured instructor for the event is Jeffrey Lloyd Dever, whose pioneering techniques in polymer have made him one of the most respected artists in the field. His jewelry and sculptural objects have been shown in many national invitational exhibitions, and his works are represented in numerous private collections, galleries and museums.
