Putting the pieces together

by Cynthia Tinapple on October 5, 2012

Each of these 25 polymer squares was made by different artists following a pattern handed to them. Julie Eakes prepared the Picasso drawing puzzle and the Pingree group created the pieces in 2011.

The rules were to reproduce the image you were given and to use a limited palette. No one knew what the whole project would look like. Assembling the tiles into an image was a struggle and a good group project.

Synergy puzzle

Judy Belcher and I are trying to assemble a picture of the polymer world for the Synergy conference. When you fill out the first of our surveys on Monday, you’ll be adding your anonymous data to our puzzle. Be ready, pop quiz on Monday. With your help, we’ll begin to see a picture emerging.

Wednesday class

I’m also assembling the last bits for my Rolling Stones class on Wednesday which will include some faux sea glass tips. Join me online at Craftcast for a fun session.

Great collaboration! Kyle might be interested in using this idea with his polymer class in the spring.

I have to brag about the class Cynthia is teaching next Wednesday LIVE online!!! Not only does Ms. C always inspire personal creativity, she will show you how to do some techniques with polymer that i think are just brilliant! Just had to brag about her a bit. :)
