Simplicity and Clay

by

Carnelian Wildflower on pinkI am in awe of some of the polymer clay artist out there that can manipulate the clay and make it do whatever they want it to do. Now, I know it takes practice, and a great deal of it at that. It also takes patience and perseverance. Well not all of us have the patience or possibly the time, myself included. So, when I see the elegant work of MissFickleMedia on Etsy, I’m overjoyed. This is something that is simple yet, not so simple that it doesn’t take the patience to get it just right, and she’s got something for everyone in almost every color, shape and size. Go have a look, I’m sure you’ll see something you like.

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.
