Minnesota’s Sherstin Schwartz (lifeofapaintbrush) turns polymer on and off.
I’ve always been fascinated by glow-in-the-dark clays and paints but have I ever tried them? No. Have you?
There she goes again, getting us all psyched with her alien flowers and otherworldly gardens. Her paints and powders are from Technoglow.
First, let me say that Chicago’s Marina Rios (FancifulDevices) is not a child. Or a chipmunk. She sped up the video to give us super fast look.
Marina gets messy and there’s not a liquid or powder that she won’t try in pursuit of the grungy, primitive, gypsy look that she loves to give her polymer. In this one minute session she pulls out paint, alcohol inks, crackle, eye shadow, and more in pursuit of just the right vibe.
We benefit from her experimenting without having to stain our fingers or clean up after her. Thanks, Marina.
Maryland’s Kelly Russell excels at jewel-like veneers. She can’t stop saying, “What if.”
With this veneer, she had to figure out what her gilded and colored surface would look like if she gave it Jana Roberts Benzon’s encrusted treatment.
With others, she made rough mosaics and big multi-part beads that seem unearthed from another time. Kelly’s on a roll that she shares on Facebook.
