Polymer Clay Art			Sponsored Polymer Clay Links
Polymer clay is a very versatile and wonderful medium to work with.  Whether your polymer clay art interest is jewelry, wildlife art, dolls, figurines or other polymer clay projects, there are no limitations to the quality of work that you can do.
		The Hunt - As of this writing this sculpture is still a work in progress.  The Hunt is a unique sculpture of the archangel Michael.  After the wings have been included the sculpture should stand around 18 1/2 inches in height. I sculpt very muscular angels because it visually creates a presence of power, strength and security.  As you can see in the image, you can create an amazing amount of detail in polymer clay art.This sculpture is sculpted with Super Sculpey.
		Of One Soul - The work in progress picture to the left is a sculpture of a an American Indian, wolf, bear and eagle symbolizing the relationship between man and his environment.    Of One Soul is a puzzle sculpture in the sense that I have embedded hidden images of a fish, wolf paw prints and an eagle’s claw into the artwork.  I’ve created puzzles with other artwork and it not only creates a fun piece to look at but is also a fun conversational piece to see if you and your friends can find all of the hidden images.Sculpted with Super Sculpey.
		Morning Run - Sculpture of a wild horse running through the open plains.  I love challenges and this sculpture was a great opportunity for my expand my skills.  This is the first full body horse that I have sculpted and provided a great learning experience on how to do research for sculpting a subject matter that I was not familiar with.Sculpted with Super Sculpey mixed with black and white Fimo.
		Daisy - This was a commissioned sculpture for a client’s whose dog had recently passed away.  This sculpture was a wonderful challenge and a great opportunity to take a few photographs and turn them into a three dimensional work of art. I wanted to include a picture of one of my finished pieces of work so that you can see how you can take something as simple as polymer clay, and some paint to create a beautiful lasting piece of polymer clay art.The sculpture was sculpted with Super Sculpey.
Keep in mind that sculpting is a process that takes time to master.  If you are just starting out I recommend that you try a few basic polymer clay projects to get you going and build your skill set from there.  You can view additional examples and larger images of my artwork by visiting www.polymerclayfan.com/gallery Polymer Clay Art on eBay Don’t forget about eBay if you are interested in buying or even selling your polymer clay art.  Selling original art on eBay is a great way for polymer clay artist to get their name out while earning additional income.  EBay also provides an opportunity to purchase original artwork that would be hard to find in traditional markets.

   I’ve only just started using polymer clay and can’t believe the range of colours and finishing techniques. The best things about any new hobbie is the learning and experimenting stage.

   Thankyou for sharing your wonderful art with us. I am a fellow polymer clay enthusiast and have just opened a shop on ebay, called Bitchcraft, take a look if u get the time. I hope to do a custom page in the shop to teach the millefiori technique, plus I am soon adding a childrens page, done by my 8 year old son and his friend. I love fimo! Your art is great and an inspiration to me to do more detailed sculpting. Best mutantfairy wishes, Tania

   You are wonderful artist. I am still learning. I came across something the other day about polymer clay. My husband built me a hobby room (not finished.) and I was going through some draws I stuck out there. And I came across some Scupley clay. Unwrapped. Polyerform. I was not into polymer clay when I bought this. It has to be at least 15 to 20 years old. Still moist. And workable. Not dryed out. I was shocked. I loved this hobby. I am learning all the time. Hope your web site is here a long time. Bev
