Emily at Rittenhouse Square this Weekend

Emily’s Clay Table at Clay ConneCTion 2012

I am an early riser and usually the first one to the Clay room when we are on retreats.  I entertain myself by taking pictures of everyone’s clay tables.  There is always such variety.

So Emily’s beautiful bowls, showcased recently on Polymer Clay Daily begin like this.  We clayers appreciate the process.  Caning in particular transforms the clay almost magically.

This is the season for artists to display their creations (and hopefully exchange them for money!)  There are many craft shows over the next two weeks.  This weekend is one of my favorites at Penn’s Landing – Art Star Craft Bazaar – lots of hipster crafts there.

This year I am going to step it up a notch and go see Emily at the Pennsylvania Guild Fine Craft Fair.  If you want to see Emily and the other fine artists, head down to Rittenhouse Square this weekend (Friday May 10- Sunday May 12) and come see what they have to offer.

Ellen Marshall will be teaching her newly developed 2-day workshop, Elements and Construction, on July 26-27, 2013 at the Premiere Master Class Camp in Laurel, Maryland.  For those not familiar with Ellen, her experience with polymer goes way back.  She creates one-of-a-kind and limited-edition contemporary art jewelry featuring polymer clay.  Her inspiration has come from art quilts, ceramics, graphic arts, and color in general.

Stuck in traffic

That is the theme for the day.  Unfortunately I could not use the 2 hours sitting on 76W to write my members only newsletter because of wacky state laws regarding texting and driving.  Even when driving resembles parking.

So, dear Guild Members, give me a day or two and you will see our big surprise scheduled for our May Meeting coming to your inbox.

Looking forward to seeing you then!
