Inks, Powders and Paints with Polymer Clay
We will explore liquid mediums for use with polymer clay to make focal pieces and embellishments for scrapbooks, clothing, jewelry, book making, and
other crafts. Inks and paints make a viable marriage with Polymer clay to enhance and add beauty to the medium. Surface treatments and
incorporation make up the bulk of this class so you will walk away with beautiful samples of clay swatches that can themselves be used as focal pieces
for your work. Cernit polymer clay,Piñata inks, Neo opaque acrylic paint,Pearl-ex pigment,Pearl-ex inks, Lumiere acrylic paint, Pearl-ex varnish, 4-hrs.
