Hawaii’s Christi Friesen celebrates Shark Week with a special collection of her ghoulies and says, “We’re gonna need a cuter boat!”


A week with grandsons has changed my perspective and educated me. I’ll be sorting out what I learned and sharing what I fished for and caught online in StudioMojo. Suhweet edition.

Polymer that protects

Marchal's sharks on PolymerClayDaily.com

It’s summer and you know what that means. Sharks and other sea creatures will be in the news. Like this strange polymer species from Estelle Marchal’s Les Ptitsmobiles.

Estelle moved to Grenoble, France where she’s unpacked and back in the creature business. A scroll through her Facebook collection of stylized octopuses, carnivorous plants, stingrays and other oddities is sure to make you smile. They will soon populate her shop and her Instagram page.

She often turns her creations into mobiles that protect children while they sleep. Estelle is a molecular biologist when she’s not making sharks. The polymer community attracts lots of scientist/artists who enjoy reinterpreting the lifeforms they work with.
