Featured Artist - Valerie's stuff!

I'm behind again!

Lasy weeks featured Smoosher was Valerie, from Valerie's stuff.

She makes wonderful polymer clay jewellery and each one looks like a little canvas. I love the softness in her work.
This looks like marble! It reminds me of this kit my Mum had when I was younger, she liked to buy crafty things. You dropped inks into a bucket of water and dipped things and they got this beautiful marble pattern. For a while of my young life she got a bit obsessed and even our loo seat was marbled for a while. lol!

She also makes great abstract designs, like this, called 'Along came a spider'.


I love the colours in this cuff bracelet too.

So check out Valerie's stuff for some great items!

  1. I had not thought of marbled inks and dyes in years. That piece does remind me of that technique. Beautiful!

  2. I'll have to take a pic of an elementary school project of mine -

    It was a Sport Cola soda bottle twirled in paint -

    The Doggy Nanny still has it here - actually, it is quite near to where I'm sitting at this moment -

    What a great post of 'colours' and memories!
