My items from Sarah Shiver's Class
My first class at Orlando Clay Fandango was with Sarah Shriver. We learned “to mix beautiful colors of polymer clay using Sarah’s in depth Skinner blending techniques”.
Okay, so mine doesn’t look anything like Sarah’s sample bracelet. (third one down on the linked page) But I had to make my shape a little bit different and do another piece with my cane. Plus I didn’t take a very good picture of the bracelet.
I still have miles of cane left and am going to spend some time trying to remember what I’m suppose to do with it. Most of the other students produce beautiful pieces.
If you haven’t taken a class with Sarah, I want you to know that you should. She is such an experienced polymer clay artist that she just naturally is able to explain her process easily. Just her color mixing approach alone is worth seeing.
She has a quick wit and is very entertaining. She moves her class along but has time to spend with anyone that needs it. After class she was right back at her desk to answer questions and help anyone that wanted it. Everyone had time to drill holes in their beads and end up with a finished piece.
Visit Sarah’s website for more information about her classes, her DVD’s and her Show Schedule.
Wow! Alice!!
Your bracelet is stunning! I LOVE your colours and everything else about it! Wow!!
Aimee, the cool thing about these beads is that they are different colors on the other side. . Reversible. I’m just not a bead finisher. Someone else needs to finish them for me. Ah. Thanks.
