Oregon’s Dede Leupold collaborated with Goph Albitz to produce this 18K gold, tourmaline, layered opal, PMC and polymer clay pendant. It won best of show in the Central Oregon Metal Artists Guild Collaborative Show.
Start your week with the knowledge that polymer clay can be so much more than humble plastic. In the hands of a master of color and pattern like Dede (no site but you can see some of her earlier works here or contact Dede), polymer clay adds excitement and new beauty to traditional materials.
