I just came back from Clayathon. It was 5 glorious days of claying, learning and community!
The guest artist was Lindly Haunani. She is an expert in color theory and polymer clay.
I made leaves for an upcoming installation piece for Laura Tabakman and Emily Squires Levine. You can follow Emily or Laura for further developments. I will make sure you get the details as they unfold!
I was experimenting with surface design. This is the start of a teapot. Coptic marker was used over white clay and then carved. Translucent clay with red embossing powders was used. It needs to be sanded and buffed before I continue. I will post my progress in the next blog. (I also post on Instagram).
My muses were keeping me active. Along with the surface designs, there were small 2 inch fish and birds. I like the way they turned out. There will be more of these little guys appearing in the future.
Time to unpack and face reality..........
Looking out my back door tonight.
PEACE
