North Central Florida Polymer Clay Guild Daytona Beach Retreat
October 13-15 2006
What a wonderful idea, what a lovely retreat, what delightful artists, what a great time we all had! Attending were members from the Ocala and Orlando Guilds as well as others like Dee De Carlo from Ormond Beach and the editor of Polymer Café, Joan Clipp, who is moving to the beach area.
Present were Diana McNamee, Carole Trachy, Lois Lin, Connie Ferreira, Pat Sistrand, Bev Moreau, Bette Richards, Rhonda Colcord, Janet Garber, Nancy Welch, Alice Townsend, Gayle Thompson, Carol Hess, Richard Bassett, Brenda Squires, Mary Jenkins, Joan Clipp and Dee De Carlo. Sally Murphy registered but was not able to attend as she went to Albuquerque to her daughters wedding. She was missed.
We set up in the beachside room and went to work. Everyone worked on their own projects for a while and visited with others. Our first demonstration was by Lois Lee Lin
Who showed us how to put little slices of canes on the inside of tiny bottles in the fashion of ancient Chinese opium bottles. She created her tools herself from the wires of Chinese take-out boxes.

This four-day intensive workshop employs wire-working and polymer clay form building techniques to create innovative small-scale sculptural forms in jewelry. First we will fabricate wire frame armatures and then complete basket forms with a tinkered wire-wrapping technique. Next, we will create original polymer clay forms through staged clay layering and multi-cycle curing to complete pieces. Finally, we’ll explore finishing techniques with an emphasis on an array of surface ornamentation options. This is a technique workshop, not a project class; therefore all students should have a basic working knowledge of polymer clay.
Date: September 4-7, 2011
