My polymer art beads are created with custom mixed colors using combinations of only the strongest and most durable translucent and opaque clays. My work consists of my own original canework designs and my own blend of custom mixed colors. Each of my beads is one of a kind (OOAK). My canes are made very small and I don't recreate colors and canes, which makes each of my bead sets unique.
Beads that have a glasslike shine have been meticulously sanded with multiple grits and machine buffed. All of my Kaleidoscope tiles are sanded smooth and buffed to a shine. Some sculpted beads are not varnished, but only rubbed with combinations of inks, artist quality paints, and metallic leafing pens. With wear, expect these beads to achieve their own unique patina. All beads are drilled with approximately 1~2mm hole, unless stated otherwise. Bead holes are triple cleaned, sometimes quadruple cleaned!
Polymer clay can be stamped, textured, sculpted, molded, painted, and so much more. It is truly amazing the variety of techniques that artists utilize with this medium!
