If you are anything like me, you and your significant other have lots of inside jokes. Things that might seem silly and goofy to others, but it’s fun for you. My friend and her husband like silly things just like we do. One day she signed her email to me “Fu-fump, Fu-fump, Fu-fump” and explained…
Read MoreGanesha
Ganesha is one of the major deities in the Hinduism. He is the patron of arts and sciences and the remover of obstacles. With credentials like that, it seems obvious he would be one of my favorites. A full version of Ganesha would reveal that Ganesha has the head of an elephant and the body…
Read MoreSpring Bee
This is another wall hanging made with polymer clay on Masonite. It’s 12″ x 4″. I wanted to play with metal finishes and patina.

Read MoreThe Learning Orchid
Oh the Learning Orchid… My first orchid I made separately. I created it first, cured it, and then attached it to the rest of the piece and then cured it again. The first problem was the double-baking. I had used wire to add some support to the petals. When they came out of the oven…
