Some beautiful Moiko Silkscreens arrived in the mail not long ago (huge thanks to Gosia) so I couldn’t wait to get started on the next sample for the Melbourne (two day) workshops. This time I really wanted to tackle an “Ocean” themed piece. Gathering “oceany” goodies was quite an easy task as I had a…
Swellegant Veneers and Pods
Tuesday again and fun time in the studio – woohoo! I decided to play with Swellegant again today. I’ve been thinking of a few different veneer variations lately so of course had to give them a try and after a few failures, I managed to stumble across a technique that worked really well. I loved…
“Crab Claw”, “Sticks” and So Much More….
Studio day today and I was like a mad woman possessed!! haha what a day – it was incredible – I got so much achieved. First up I decided to pull apart a couple of pieces I had made and wasn’t quite happy with – time for a revamp! I pulled them apart, grabbed out…
Brisbane Workshops March 2017
Soooooo excited to be going to Brisbane next year. It’ll be a triple whammy for me. Not only will I get to meet some awesome clayers I’ve only ever chatted to online, I’ll also get to catch up with a couple of old friends (no they’re not old, I’ve just known them for a while)…
Swellegant Veneers and Other Bits!
I’ve had a fun couple of days in the studio and thought I would pop all the pics here so you can check them all out. These veneers are all experimental using Christi’s range of Swellegant Metal Coatings (which I am totally in love with now by the way). I can’t give too much away…
Uuugghhhh…I Hate Finishing Pieces Off!!!
Ok it’s official…I’ve decided I really hate finishing things off. I love making components and beads and all sorts of bits that go together but I really struggle when it comes to the “making it up” stage. I’m sure there are a few who know what I’m talking about because I’ve seen many a conversation…
Studio Day and Swellegant
Aaaahhhh Tuesday again…gosh I’ve needed Tuesday this week – it’s been busy. I’ve had Christi’s Swellegant on my clay table for a while now and just needed a good block of time to play around with it more. I planned on doing lots of experimenting today and that’s exactly what I did. This product really…
BOHO Themed Mixed Media Art Canvas Using Polymer Clay and MOIKO Silkscreens
I’m so impatient….I should have waited to get some of Gosia’s beautiful mandala silkscreens but I just couldn’t!! I wanted to try another mixed media canvas using these silkscreens and decided the tribal patterns would work well for this boho themed canvas also….oh but I really should have waited. I guess I’ll just have to…
