Meet ColtPixy

December 8, by Elaine Robitaille. 9 Comments

This Wednesday, I’d like to introduce you to Star aka ColtPixy. ColtPixy runs the ArtFire Polymer Clay Guild known as the Smooshers. It’s an inclusive group and it has a whole line up of clayers from new-to-clay to old hands.

1. So, introduce yourself!

Hi my name is Angelina Star Edwards. In person everyone calls me Star and online most people know me as ColtPixy. I currently reside in beautiful, rural Tennessee.

2. Why do you work with polymer clay?

For many years I made my living creating stained glass mosaics but as a hobby I sculpted with polymer clay. Several years ago I severely injured a tendon in my hand and my orthopedic surgeon suggested I do that the other way around.

3. What’s your favourite technique in clay?

From then on my main focus has been sculpting and I could not be happier. I am so lucky to be doing what I love.

You can see more of Star’s work here:

What’s up with Wednesdays? Well, Wednesdays are going to be my day to Meet People, where by “people” I mean polymer clay artists and polymer clay art enthusiasts. If you’re interested in a bit of a spotlight, email me at polymerclay@craftgossip.com and I will shoot you a couple questions.

    Hi Cat!, and Star it’s been awhile. I’ve always enjoyed your work though. Hope all is well with you. Thank you Cat, Star is a wonderful choice for this forum, and I love the piece you’ve featured. I remember when Star was creating it. …Hugs Ladies!! <3
