A Mix of Disciplines
September 28, 2015 Inspirational Art
The concept of mixing disciplines was a conversation over and over this weekend between a visit to the FIDM Museum for the Golden Globes Costume exhibit, a friend’s photography gallery exhibit opening and a wander through a rare bookstore. Some artists are inspired by the medium or technique they work in while others look for the right mediums and techniques to express their ideas.
If you read the Laurie MacIsaac article in the Summer 2015 issue of The Polymer Arts, then you probably recognize the artist here. As shown in the article through images of her sketches and her finished art work, Caroline Cornic mixes her skill as an illustrator with beautifully finished polymer jewelry. The style of her images and the brightness of her colors seemed like a perfect Monday pick-me-up, as well as an inspiration for those looking for a way to stretch out and try something new. You can use illustrative techniques by drawing directly on the polymer with polymer safe pens like Ranger’s Perfect Pearls pen or PITT artist markers, or you can draw on paper with graphite or color pencils and use a rub and bake image transfer technique to put it on your clay.
To see more of Caroline’s great illustrative polymer, check out her Etsy shop and her Pinterest board filled with her bright and whimsical work.
