About the Artist
My passion is horses and thus I follow an old tradition of horse artists. Through my artistic creation, I want to give the feeling of being close to a horse and its healing ability, to show and remind of how wonderful and inspiring horses are. I come from an old family of artists, so I have "always" been doing art and received both encouragement and constructive criticism from those around me. When I create a new horse, I often walk around for hours and days, twisting and turning the possibilities, impossibilities, colors, shapes, and different expressions in my thoughts. Patterns, solutions, and various technical design problems take turns. Each horse is unique, each horse carries its own meaning and has its own symbols and meaning. Every horse has been created with empathy and love. Polymer clay is such a fantastic artistic material because the colors are present in the clay itself from the beginning. When I create with polymer clay, it feels like I'm painting in three dimensions.

About the Artist
Eli Collins-Brown has been working with polymer clay since 2009. She was inspired to explore this new medium after seeing Laura Timmins magnificent swirl beads at an art show. She started exploring the endless possibilities with polymer and hasn't stopped discovering new ideas and techniques. Eli is a part-time artist who works full time in higher education helping instructors design exceptional learning experiences. She brings her artistry into her job and her design process into her art. She is stretching into selling her work in her online store and most recently with her 3D printer making clay cutters and textures.

About the Artist: Elena Montanaro
I discovered polymer clay twelve years ago and I was really surprised for the versatility of this medium and its endless possibility. It is like a compendium of a lot of medium, you find color and third dimension just together. I made mostly necklaces and jewelry but now I started with bowls and I really enjoyed the process.

About the Artist: Eileen Cressman-Reeder
When first seeing my work, I'm often asked, "How do you come up with this stuff?" I don't know. But my hope is for my work to shed light on the humor of everyday life. Humor connects us in a positive way. Smiling and laughing is beautifully contagious. I aim to spread a little happiness to those who I touch through my art and teaching. Smile on, friends, smile on.

About the Artist
I've always been creative and coming England there was plenty of time to be indoors making things. I have tried many different mediums over the years but in 2010 I moved to California and my next door neighbour introduced me to polymer clay and the rest as they say is history.
Having initially created jewelry I now concentrate on my wine glass charms and Steampunk work. During the pandemic I really focused on this style and created my Fish out of Water Series, culminating in this my very largest piece of work. My work is in a local gallery and I am also in a Studio in the Spanish Village Art Centre, Balboa Park.

BLOOMING BUBBLES
Ultralight clay, Genesis paints, Liquid clay, repurposed metal tubing.
Inspired in part by the way bubbles gather and bond, dozens of hand formed hollow clay spheres were carefully built up to create this bubbling effect. I added the small blooms to indicate a moving transformation where the bubbles slowly burst into flora. 5 layers of Genesis Paints and liquid clay added depth and ore dimension to the finished piece .

About the Artist: Diane Kremer
I began my professional career as a computer engineer and worked in high-tech for 20 years. It was rewarding and I enjoyed it. Changing careers never entered my mind until I was laid off during the great recession of 2009. A world of possibilities opened up. Could I travel a completely different road? Could I turn my jewelry making hobby into a business? Could I make jewelry that was art? I believe I was a "maker" long before the term was coined but I never considered myself an artist. I believed that artists were born, not made. I have since discovered that many different paths can make one an artist as long as you love what you do and work hard to grow and improve. Now I am working full-time as an artist and selling my work at juried art fairs and on my website. I am thrilled to be exhibiting at the Lincoln Gallery in Loveland, CO and the Museum of Boulder, and to be an active member of the Firehouse Art Center, East Boulder County Artists Association, Mile High Polymer Clay Guild, Longmont Polymer Clay Guild and to be the current president of the Rocky Mountain Bead Society.
