June Meeting is upon us, and we will get started with a Demo from Julie Eakes on how to make a name cane to personalize our artwork. Then for the next few months the guild will be working on our own version of artwork by Jon Anderson.
 Please go to his website to view his great artwork, look at the depth of the design of each one of his canes.

to view him making one of his canes please view:
Fimocreations The Polymer Clay Magic of Jon Anderson - YouTube

  Please decide on what type of object you are going design w/ various canes. Please bring Aluminum foil so you can start making the sculpture. We will also discuss caning and the thought process of designing a cane to match the theme of your sculpture. If you have already done this, then you will basically be working on making your canes to go on your sculpture.
If you are not familiar with making polymer clay canes, there are several different basic and advanced cane techniques on youtube that you might like to view prior to the meeting on Saturday. Bring any and all caning questions with you so we can discuss at the meeting.
Please bring your basic PC kit (description/details available on past Meeting notes)
Aluminum foil if working on making your sculpture
Polymer Clay (PC) of assorted colors
Look forward to seeing everyone at the meeting on Saturday.

June 2012 QCC Meeting

Hi Y'all,
This Saturday coming up is the 4th one and already time for our QCC meeting.  We have some great meeting plans for the next few meetings.  We are going to start working on canes including a name cane (right Cheryl?)  to go on our Jon Anderson inspired animals.  So this month we will start with planning our animal and making canes.  July we will probably make more canes and maybe our base animal scuplture.  Hopefully by August we can finish our pieces.  Hope to see you all there.
12:00 at the usual place.
