The September meeting of the Central
Mississippi Polymer Clay Guild will be on Saturday, September 17th, 2016, at
10:00 a.m. at the Pearl Library, Pearl, Mississippi. This month we are going to cover some of the many “Surface
Techniques” that are available for working with polymer clay. We have already
covered a lot of them during other meetings so Joyce will demo some of the
newer ones. There was a request for one of the classics, the Sutton
Slice technique, and so we covering that too. It is clay on clay, will not require
a sealant, like the other techniques.
SURFACE SUPPLIES:
- Embossing: resembles enameling
- Embossing folders and pigment
inks: pigment inks heat set with the clay
- Masking with tapes and using
paints: Inca gold paint
- Rubberstamping with pigment ink
and a new way of using alcohol ink
- Oil based Sharpie markers on baked
clay
- Sutton Slice: highly recommend
Souffle clay
- Pan Pastels: with stencils and
silk screens
