Polymer Clay

Fimo and clay tips and tutorials

Comments

  1. Darn, I started typing a comment, & clicked on something by mistake…it’s gone! At least I think so–if it’s in moderation, I apologize for the re-post. Anyway, I’m bummed that I missed “Talk like a Pirate Day.” It’s always so much fun–we always laugh ourselves silly when we act like pirates.

    I ended up over here today because Cindy did a post on you. She mentioned an article you did back when she was first starting out…seems like she wanted to say “thanks” by blogging about you today. I was surprised to find that her blog/website isn’t in your resource list on the left side. She’s certainly come a long way from just a few videos…she’s got an entire webite filled with polymer clay information of every type. She still works tirelessly to answer questions and provide support. She comes up with new techniques, and finds ways to improve or simplify older ones. It’s funny–your previous post was about the tri-bead roller, and she just did a new video tutorial about tube beads, and the Amaco Tube bead roller–something many of us had difficulty using correctly. (The instructions are a bit lacking with those tools.)

    Cindy has kept her teeny-tiny membership price the same all this time…it’s still a very low $3.32 a month. That gets you 4 new video tutorials, and 12 color recipes (from 3 custom palettes.) Well, I guess I’ve rambled enough. I just want people to know how amazing The Polymer Clay Tutor’s site is–especially for beginner/intermediate clayers.

    Thanks for your awesome site. I’ll be sure to visit again…
    Thanks, Gianna

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.
