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:

  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.

Important Notice - Date change for meeting

April 2012 QCC Meeting

Hi Y'all,

It's time for the April meeting already. This coming Saturday (the 28th) 12 - 4, the usual place. Unless someone else volunteered to do a demo and I just can't remember I can/will demo the sculptural dogwood flower like the necklace I brought for show and tell last time. LMK if that's ok with you all. The suplies are simple: Clay kit (pasta machine, blades, work surface, acrylic rod, hand cleaner wipes...) Polymer clay in white, green, yellow, black, and burnt umber acrylic paint (or what you prefer for antiquing)

                                                           Hope to see you all there.

More Guild Art WoRk done w/ Advanced Sutton Slice at this March Meeting

 
Hello Clayers!

Are you ready for another Saturday of Sutton Slice? We are moving to the more advanced method of adding more than one color, or using a skinner blend in a background or as the color of the design. Also if you'd like to make a completed project from the first Sutton Slice bring the item you wanted to cover w/ the Sutton Slice and we can discuss and work on that as well. Look forward to seeing everyone.

Bring uncompleted Sutton Slice project and items, unmounted deep etched design stamp, please PC (polymer clay) colors that match the design for you next Sutton Slice image and liquid PC, if you don't have I'll bring so don't worry, that is to help mount your design to you item.

Basic Clay Kit: pasta machine and any attachments such a clamp to secure it to the table, acrylic roller, blade, work surface (large tile or glass surface), polymer clay.

(then you bring anything else you like to use, like maybe your handiwipes, deli paper or plastic wrap, your PC texture tools, textured sheets, favorite size circle or square cutter, small spritz water bottle, etc)

I think that about covers it. If you have finished your first basic Sutton Slice project please bring so we can take pics to place onto this guild page to go w/ Feb Guild meeting and then can post what we complete on Saturday for March. Thank you!
