Hello from the new editor

August 1, 2008 by Wendy

Hi! It’s nice to meet you and it’s great to be here.

My name is Wendy, and I will be your new editor for the PolymerClay@CraftGossip blog. I am so happy to be able to bring all of the info I find about polymer clay here in one place for you. I love trying new techniques and new products with polymer clay and I know all of you do too. So, you’ll be reading all about the trials and tribulations of my claying along with breaking news in the polymer world, reviews on new products and everything polymer clay! If you are a newbie, don’t sweat it, I will have all of the info you need too !

If any of you out there have something in particular you’d like to read about, leave me a comment with the subject and I’ll put it on my list of topics to write about.

Stay tuned and I’ll be back, in the mean time be careful of the links you click on when surfing the web, it seems that a few polymer clay artist’s websites have been hacked into. Some sufers have gotten a virus from them. Always have a good antivirus program installed and updated to keep you from having that problem.

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.
