\"moth-irridescent\"<\/a>I don’t know what it is, but moths seem to be popping up all over the place in the polymer-sphere. They are pretty amazing too. This one was hard to miss. The\u00a0translucent wings and choice of colors that are smoothly graduated in beautifully executed detail make this moth feel quite ethereal. Even the fluff and strands on the head are finely wrought clay with careful attention paid to the progression of grays. It’s a wonderful piece but unfortunately, I don’t have the artist to credit. It showed up on Pinterest with\u00a0a link to a polymer group page on www.vk.com<\/a> but with over 11,000 members, I have no idea whose it could be.<\/p>\n

I can’t tell you how many pieces I pass up for features in the blog because there is no artist listed and initial searching leaves me no clues. Which means we are all without further knowledge of these artists. You can help change this.<\/p>\n

If you like something so well that you save it, be sure there is a link to the source of the image’s information, not just the website’s \u00a0homepage. You can ensure you are doing this by grabbing the web address of the post, article, or particular page you found the image on in the notes of the image on the social media site you save it to. If the address is just the website home page, you can usually click through on the post’s title or the “more …” link at the bottom of it to find the particular page with the artist’s information in whatever form the posting person has it.<\/p>\n

Let’s give credit where credit it due. Not to mention giving us a chance to find out whose work we are admiring. As usual, if anyone knows who created this, chime in. I know I would like to see what other wonderful things they are creating!<\/p>\n

UPDATE:\u00a0We got our answer as to who the artist was–Darya Telegina of\u00a0Balambeshka<\/a>\u00a0on www.vk.com. Thank you to\u00a0Sherrie Brittig,\u00a0Conny Brockstedt, and Natalya Aleksandrova for figuring it out and sending the links!<\/p>\n
