The last few weeks I’ve been playing around with various ideas for the new look of my website. The first image is a screenshot of my current design. The second image is what I’m imagining the new home page will look like… The subpages will have a much [...]
This was one of the pieces I created as show entries recently. I had alot of fun with the idea and have a few other variations in mind that I may try at some point. I used some of the forming techniques I learned in Dan Cormier’s workshop for the outer rows [...]
I’m feeling a little deflated.
I checked the list of accepted work for the show and neither of my pieces was listed. I’m disappointed because I really thought they’d make it in.
It’s hard to know whether there’s anything to learn from this. The show is only juried by one person so it could [...]
Well, I actually got some time to spend in the studio in the past couple weeks and I created two sculptures for my local art association’s Abstract/Avant Garde juried show. Now I just have to wait for the weekend to see if I got in.
Either way, I really like both pieces. [...]
Last weekend was the Bead Bazaar for our polymer clay guild and it seemed to go really well. The guild always takes two tables and we had beads from about 15 different members. There was a large variety of styles and some really gorgeous beads.
I was working on Saturday morning – it was quite [...]
I’ve got a couple things up on JustBeads this week if you’d like to take a look. There’s a treefrog, a faux ivory manatee, and this fox silhouette bead.

If you’re in the area, drop by. I’ll be there Saturday and some of my beads will be at the [...]
A couple people asked me what I’ve been up to lately… since I haven’t been online much and I hadn’t been doing too much with my clay and kaleidoscopes.
First of all, I am still alive and kicking and I’m doing pretty well. I’m even thinking about re-doing my website again although I’m not sure [...]
It seems like everyone’s making resolutions and setting goals this time of year and it started me thinking about my own:
Gradually reorganize and reclaim my claying table.
It never lasts – I always end up working in a 4-6 inch square area surrounded by shaky piles of supplies and tools. But getting [...]
The weekend of July 8th I went to the Stowe, Vermont Kaleidoscope Festival. The delay in posting about it was because I was at a fun but exhausting polymer clay retreat this weekend and only had a few days between the two events to recover and prepare for the next one.
Stowe is an absolutely [...]
