Wish You Were Here


This handmade polymer mosaic features 2" square tiles made entirely of polymer clay, entirely by hand, entirely by me. 37Wx 38L
It was inspired by the song 'Wish You Were Here' by Incubus from their Morning View cd.
The star and ripple details glow in the dark.
This one was made for the March PCAGOE chalenge to create something inspired by your favorite song.


Wish You Were Here

I dig my toes into the sand...

The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds

Strewn across a blue blanket.

I lean against the wind,

Pretend that I am weightless,

And in this moment I am Happy...

Happy.


I wish you were here.


I lay my head onto the sand...

The sky resembles a back-lit canopy

With holes punced in it.

I'm counting UFO's,

I signal them with my lighter,

And in this moment I am Happy...

Happy.


I wish you were here.


The world's a roller coaster

and I am not strapped in.

Maybe I should hold with care

But my hands are bust in the air.

Hardflower Full Circle, Green Goddess


This is a Hardflower Full Circle. It is made using silver clay for the ring, and polymer clay and silver leaf for the inside. This is my signature piece, named for my life. I have come full circle as a wife, mom, daughter, sister, friend, artist, and a child of God. I am content, but always striving to be better. I am happy!

This is a hardflower. It is made of silver and gold polymer with accents of fuschia and glow in the dark. Is a lovely little sculpture that also functions as an incense burner.

Welcome to the world of Hardflower

HI! I am a polymer clay artist, among many other things, and I've decided to share my work with the world. I've been working with polymer for about fifteen years and I never get tired of it. My inspiration is the every day beauty that is all around us. Sometimes we have to hunt for it, but it is always there.
