Eggs!
September 2003
|
| Wondering what next to cover with polymer clay? Look no further than your breakfast table! And after you've covered that with clay, you might want to consider another fun surface -- eggs.
First, there's nearly no end of eggs you can cover -- chicken, duck, quail, turkey, emu, ostrich, dinosaur, wooden -- you name it (well, don't attempt to cover styrofoam -- it melts in the oven). Second, there's no end of designs.
For inspiration, look no further than our little gallery of eggs right here.
|
| Our first exhibitor is Bernie G. He calls himself "the new kid on the block" (even though he's 73) but his lovely eggs look like the work of a well-experienced clayer. |
| Our next "egg"cellent clayer is Chryse Laukkonen. Check out the mother-of-pearl technique on the butterfly mosaic egg! |
| Dawn Schiller, aka Blue Raven, brings personality to every egg she makes. I can't think of a single egg joke for her, so we will just leave it at that! |
| Patti Kimle is a well-known polymer clay and egg artist who gives workshops on this very topic. If you have the opportunity to take one of her workshops, don't miss it! |
| We round out this gallery of eggs with heavenly-detailed eggs by Jack Schwend. He's translated a Ukranian/Norwegian egg-dying technique into polymer clay canes and the results are magnificent. |
