Featured on The Art Zoo blog...

Christelle of Karooart alerted me this morning that one of my pendant beads was featured on THE ART ZOO blog, a blog that features all sorts of artwork by various artists. I'm honored!

The basketweave is a cane I created using a tutorial by Jana Roberts Benzon on polymer clay central; the leaves are also slices of canes. The blossoms are formed from freshwater pearls and dots of polymer clay.

I distressed the clay before baking, and antiqued it using acrylic paint. It was then sanded and buffed.

    I can see why-- it's absolutely marvelous. There's so much to look at on it. I've played around with Sculpey before, but certainly compared to this, that's what I was doing-- playing around. Astounding to see what it can become.
