A brand new site from Maryland’s Mari O’Dell fills in nicely while the Colorado network taunts us with an intermittent signal.
Mari extrudes polymer with an Asian influence to create a great selection of jewelry, treasure boxes and beloved bowls. After 30 years as a public school teacher and travels around the world, she’s settled into teaching and creating with polymer in her treehouse studio.
The quote that guides her is, “To the wise, life is a festival.”
Do a happy dance for this terrific polymer artist who joins the online community.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Mari at the IPCA retreat in Chicago this summer–and she is an earthy, funny, and thoroughly delightful person. I was thrilled to receive one her art pieces in a swap. Go Mari! That’s a great cover piece, BTW.

I’ve been a friend of Mari’s for many years and have come to not just be inspired with her art but to realize that as she has goes forward with her art, no matter the medium she and her artwork becomes more and more inspirational and well as nearly too beautiful for words.
