La mélancolie du caméléon. As we start again our journey around the polymer world, we head to the North - the season commands - right to Denmark to meet Eva Ehler. This young Web designer is fanatical about 3D. With her, even rendering the world must include this third dimension and this marks the original feature of her creations and is the recurrent theme for her inspiration. Add to this a great sense of humour and you will find yourself smiling while you flip through Eva’s porfolio.

We can even find two animated films whose characters are made with polymer clay ! (and in pure Danish idiom… alas !) In order to access Eva’s polymer clay stuff, first click on the parchment named ‘Portfolio’ in the main screen then on the picture that looks like the opposite one. The good mood of Eva is certainly infectious because, after this Danish stop, Winter looks brighter to me.

Isn't it amazing how their style changed over the years? See their more recent works on their web site. Big beads, big art. These Ford/Forlano polymer beads were bought by collector Daphne Farago in 1999.

She gave her collection to the Museum of Fine Arts Boston in 2006 and the Big Beads appear in the new book, Jewelry by Artists. The Big Bead series is still ongoing and both Dave and Steve create them, giving each bead character yet working toward a unified design. Steve says, “Dave’s beads play with opaque and translucent cane slices to add depth to the surface, while my beads are always opaque and very graphic, emphasizing a variety of textures contrasting baked and re-baked clay layers.”

These early necklaces were all-polymer. Steve adds, “The clasp is a screw-type brass clasp, covered in clay, with a technique that Pier Voulkos used and taught. Ford/Forlano have also posted a stunning picture of their latest Hydro-Top pins in which patterns in the formed metal (by metalsmith Maryanne Petrus) are repeated and expanded in polymer.
