WELCOME TO THIS NEW SECTION OF MY WEB SITE! Since 2014 I have been interested in using polymer clay for a medium. After many years in woodworking and 20 years as a wood carver, I wanted to try something different. I thought it would be easier than wood, but I was wrong. It is not as easy as it looks and it has taken me a few years to feel like I am gaining control over the clay. I am still learning, and as I learned I have made some tutorials to help others along the same path. I hope they are helpful! |
