\"beachcomber<\/a><\/p>\n

Texas artist Randee M. Ketzel<\/a> is \u00a0Studio 215 on June 13th and 14th and bringing with her a ton of fun \u00a0with this Beachcomber bracelet. I can’t wait for this workshop and to spend some time with Randee. I haven’t meet her in person yet, but I know I’m in for a treat. I’ve heard rumors that she’s kind of fun to be around. Okay not just kind of!<\/span><\/p>\n

Plus I know for a fact she’s extremely \u00a0generous. She sent me almost the first bracelets she made using Stroppel canes. See my post about it\u00a0here<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0Thanks again Randee, they are still so special.<\/span><\/p>\n

Randee will be incorporating a wealth of faux techniques in this\u00a0<\/span>beachcomber workshop. Students will learn how to create realistic driftwood\u00a0<\/span>twigs with fungal embellishments, fossil limestone with opal inclusions in a variety of styles, including\u00a0<\/span>miniature cycladic goddess figures, faux sea glass, and jade artifacts–scarabs and cicadas.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students\u00a0<\/span>will create at least one bracelet, and have an abundance of elements left over for more projects..necklaces,\u00a0pendants. earrings and more!<\/p>\n

Lessons on seamless stringing and use of a power drill will be included. All materials and tools\u00a0provided.<\/p>\n

Join us for a trunk show featuring Randee work on Friday evening June 12th 5-8 pm. Also for sale\u00a0will be autographed copies of Randee’s recent book Polymer Clay Gemstones: The Art of Deception.<\/a><\/p>\n

Randee M. Ketzel came to polymer clay by way of a youthful career as a bench jeweler; when impending motherhood frowned upon such diversions, she turned to alternative materials, and in decent middle age, discovered–or was discovered by–polymer clay. She has happily immersed herself in its wonders ever since. She currently lives, breathes, and teaches the exquisite art of polymer clay in Austin TX with her beautiful children, wonderful husband and an impossibly fluffy little dog.<\/p>\n

Her work may be viewed on Flickr<\/a> , and on Etsy, at RMKdesign<\/a>. Her work has been featured on Polymer Clay Daily,<\/a> in national magazines, and art museum stores.<\/p>\n
