Christmas was fantastic this year, I got to cook a lot and decorate and get everything ready for the holiday--and I'm tired right out!

I haven't had the chance to sit down and make some more polymer clay things due to the holidays but I suspect that will change, soon. Someone (who is awesome beyond years) purchased a package of beautiful bright polymer Sculpey clay pack from my amazon wish list for me, and I've been quietly eye balling it up with ideas over Christmas.

I'm looking forward to bringing more cute to you and hope you're looking forward to seeing it!

I love you guys for your comments, your favorites, your critiques and yes--even your oddness--Even before and after Christmas and not just on Christmas.

I hope your Holidays were wonderful and your new year beyond splendid!

I've 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.

Sorry guys about the double-posted journal! Changing Journal skins. Forgive me?

...Ear?

Polymer clay & Polymer clay jewelry making has literally devoured my soul and I cannot truly express how pleased I am by it!

For a very long time I have dawdled between digital art and photography; finding myself struggling to really do anything I felt was any good. And as much as I might get flak for it? When I make a cute set of cat-earrings or a flower pendant, or a silly little chibi out of clay...There's a certain satisfaction I get out of seeing something finished by my hands that I've been lacking with photography and digital drawing.

Not to say that I will quit them, just that I think for the longest time I've been focusing on the wrong genre of art!

I'd made so much stuff out of clay--making myself one set of earrings and then making friends and family and finding I had left overs, I decided to make an Etsy shop.

I opened my Etsy shop in September and since then have had a modest and very exciting 10 sales. I am so proud and flattered that friends and strangers have decided to invest and purchase products made by me.

I think my triumph is only shadowed a little by the fact that I wish that I could also sell my polymer clay creations through Deviant Art as well, despite the fact that in the years here I have yet to make one--I figure it is because I never found my niche (and subsequently, an audience or buyer base, if you will, for the things I make.)

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that despite the fact my journal is updated rarely (because it's really difficult sometimes coming up with what I want to talk about and feature!) I am, by no means, dead and still here, watching your art and reading your stuff!

And hey, since I've just gushed about it for 203920392032 paragraphs, why not visit my Etsy Shop, too?
