A great big thanks to these three, who met us for the first time at CHA and allowed us to interview them, on camera, for global distribution!!! That’s huge guys. And absolutely no stagefright. It is so great to put faces with the names you know. We’ve seen and spoken together in forums at Polymer Clay Central, Kira and Lynne Ann have swapped dragon pendants, but none of us had ever met. Thanks again- and please visit their sites if you get a chance-
Lynne Ann
Cat
Tommie- well I can’t find a website for him but here’s a great article he wrote-

And, check out our new friend Linda Peterson as well. We got to watch her demo a few techniques at CHA, and she appears in the Amaco video too.

Here is the necklace that Lynne is wearing in the interview, it was the polymer clay first place winner for “Bead Dreams” at the Bead & Button show this year.

Here is some of Cat’s work:

Enjoy the video, and thanks again for interviewing with us!

I am going to break this post into two- just for the sake of archiving it for later. In this post, you can watch part 2 of Amaco’s Bottle of Hope awards. If you are not familiar with Bottles of Hope, check it out. Many of us have people in our lives who have battled cancer. Some have won, and some have lost. Bottles of Hope began when an artist covered a medicine bottle with clay and gave it to a cancer-stricken friend as a gift and an encouragement. Please check out the show, and you can also visit Amaco’s website where entries in this year’s Bottles of Hope challenge are being auctioned off to benefit the Gilda’s club of Chicago.
