Welcome to The Art of Friendly Plastic
Friendly Plastic is back and it is HOT! This unique modeling material can simulate the look and texture of lampwork beads and dichroic glass along with stone effects. It's a modeling material that is soft and maliable when heated, yet strong and durable when cooled.
Join award winning artists, Jana Ewy of Just Banana's and Linda Peterson of Linda Peterson Designs as they take you on an amazing journey exploring Friendly Plastic.
The Open Design Challenge deadline has been extended! WHEW!!! NOVEMBER 18th is your absolute drop dead date that packages have to be post marked in order to be entered for prizes (of course ...if you just want to send us something...we'll accept! :o)
The above is one of the MANY beautiful pieces of alluring eye candy that Liz Welch brought with her from the UK for sale. Not sure if this piece is still available but if you're interested contact her thru her blog: http://www.rarelizzie.wordpress.com/
Just look at the loads of mixed media presented in this piece - all combined with friendly plastic. Even more stunning in person!
For my take on mixed media, I chose found objects...okay..sort of found objects...little watch parts, patina'd brass washers all combined with Artemboss Copper and hammered WireForm Brass rods
Two totally different takes on mixed media....isn't art wonderful??
Tomorrow...Design Challenge inspiration from Jana and Jen!!
