Hearts will be a continuing theme from now until Valentines Day. Here’s a fun one from Donna 
Kato. Looks like she’s got some new things in her gallery.

Monthly Archive for January, 2006
It’s that time of year when we begin to believe in elves and fairies. Perhaps there are such creatures blooming in the early spring forests.
Katherine Dewey can make you a believer. Her fantastic archive of polymer sculptures is a pleasure to look at.

There’s more of Leslie Blackford’s work posted in a Deviant Art gallery. If her MoodyWoods web site leaves you hungering for more pictures of her work, including this March Hare necklace, you’ll want to visit her among the deviant artists.
I’d never have found this stash. Thanks to Doreen for leading me there.
Somehow I missed the new works on Laura Balombini’s site….tsk, tsk. She posted some recent works in December that you’ll want to see. Laura’s often imitated but never duplicated.
Thanks to Babs Young for tipping me off.

I’d like to look more closely at these purses by Vicki J. Wulwick, the Kate Spade of polymer purse makers. They look complicated and intriguing.
Thanks to Lisa for the tip.

Some day I’d like to be able to wear a scarf like the women in Paris….casually thrown and oh, so elegant. To me, this pin is unmistakeably French.
Magali Thiébaud has combined simple findings, ribbons and polymer squares in a very young, fresh, very French way.

All the store merchandise tells us that we’re approaching Valentine’s Day. If you’re in the mood to get your valentines ready, here’s a simple heart from Diane Villano. You can even find a "how-to" on the Polymer Cafe site. Sometimes simple is best.

Leslie Blackford’s creatures light up a room….really. (You should see the Vegas Rabbit at the left light up. The pig is a light too.)
I intended to keep this bunny under wraps until Easter but I just couldn’t bear to withhold it. Her flying pigs, cats, birds, and all manner of Kentucky wildlife come alive in the silliest and most delightful ways.
It’s a treat to watch Leslie effortlessly turn a lump of clay into a fox and dress him in a polymer Elvis outfit or lean over her shoulder as she adds wings and a fez to a pig. I have one of these lamps in a bathroom and I smile every time I see it. That’s what polymer art is about.
Her web site is a little difficult to navigate but be patient and you’ll be rewarded.
