\"eriko<\/a>This past week, during my usual hunting excursions for fabulously interesting pieces to bring to you, I noticed I was\u00a0seeing a lot of\u00a0beautiful\u00a0applications created in clean, simple\u00a0pendant and earring forms, primarily in the area of layering.<\/p>\n

This pendant\u00a0popped up on my Facebook timeline just last night. It’s by Eriko Page<\/a> who has been toiling away trying to perfect her crackle technique with, what I believe is, Kroma crackle. She mentions\u00a0Jeanette Kandray’s Kroma Crackle tutorial<\/a> on the Polyform website in a comment attached to another similar piece on her Facebook page and it does look just like it. I like how she uses\u00a0the gradient colors and texture as a background for a simple caned tableau for this pendant. There is actually a lot going on that would catch and hold the eye on this simple, organically formed rectangular pendant.<\/p>\n

Eriko hails from California and, according to her Facebook page, from Tehachapi of all places. Tehachapi is also home to\u00a0Christi Friesen and Karen Lewis (Klew). That’s a lot of polymer talent in a town that is all of\u00a0ten square miles and sits\u00a0out there on the edge of the vast Mojave desert.\u00a0What about that breeds such immense talent, I’m starting to wonder?<\/p>\n

Well, while I am pondering that mystery, you can search out more of about Eriko and her work scattered throughout the web but most notably on Fire Mountain Gem’s website<\/a>, Sonoran Beads<\/a> where you can find her beads for sale and on her Facebook page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
