Julie Picarello mixes new icy colors for her latest glacier-inspired

Julie prowls the hardware stores for some of the odd metal accents that she embeds in the clay.
She’s been including tinted epoxy resin in her recent pieces at the suggestion of fellow hardware lover Robert Dancik. The two shared a table as they worked on collaborative projects for the Polymer Clay Master Class book and the creative sparks flew.
