Celebrating Polymer clay: addiction is fun!

Journal Entry: Fri Sep 18, 2009, 6:46 AM

It's a beautiful clay!

If you hadn't noticed already via my gallery I have stumbled head-long into the wonderful world of polymer clay.

So much so that I now have a jewelry box growing steadily full of charms, earrings and other creations and have had the joy of sending a few of them off to some friends. I've even opened an Etsy shop! I can't quite tell you the sensation, the pride, and the happiness shaping something with my hands has felt like.

It's completely different from when I draw something--and the end result tends to be different as well.

Half of what I've done could not have been accomplished without Deviant Art. Everywhere I looked for polymer clay tutorials to get me started? Seriously lacking. When I checked out the tutorials here at D.A. I was utterly amazed at them all; the detail, the secrets given away and the wonderful instructions. I've had the chance to make some amazingly cute stuff and learn more in one sitting from D.A. than anywhere else.

So to celebrate the world of polymer clay, I dedicate this journal to all my favorite creations & tutorials about it!

Looking for stock? Visit my stock account!
I've recently opened a stock photography account. I have several hundred photos that aren't quite good enough to be anything, but really great for referencing, backgrounds or photo manipulation. So I figured I should set them free into the community and see what happens to them.

You may visit my new stock photography account here:

Melissa Pence is a thirty one year old self-taught digital artist who enjoys pointing accusing evil-monkey-fingers at Adobe Photoshop and cursing at her fingers.

During her horrendous nerd-filled younger years, she took several art classes. First from Mrs. Twila Robar Decoste who was nice enough not to kill her and later Holly Everett was also nice enough to allow her to live.

During her years far from elementary school or high school, Mel apparently was struck stupid and meandered away from writing, drawing and anything else awesome.

Over the past few years she has eventually taken up the pen, WACOM pen tablet, pencil and Canon camera to return to doing that which she loves. As well as maintaining a blog, 2phatgeeks, with her husband.
