For dreamers over the rainbow...

Do you feel you're chasing your muse all by your lonesome? Do you want more than classroom techniques? Are you looking for help to embrace art as an outlet for self-expression?

Voila! is a Europe-based community website for the world's polymeristas. And, with inspiration from Europe's cultural heritage, Voila! will help members take their work to new artistic heights. Tutorials, packed with fantastic photos, explain clearly how things like lines, forms and colours affect us emotionally so that you can express your artistic vision and appreciate the work of others. This is definitely not just another internet forum.

Healthy competition will help you explore your creativity with skillful and beneficial judging by guest artists as well as members of Voila!

The Polymer Art Archives - Preserving the record

For more than a decade, Elise Winters has been on a personal quest to elevate discussion about and enhance the image of polymer clay in the art and fine-craft community.

As of last week, the Board of Trustees at the Racine Art Museum in Racine, Wisconsin confirmed the museum’s commitment to establish a permanent collection of polymer jewelry, beads and sculptural objects.  As part of this commitment, RAM will not only focus on assembling a world-class collection of exhibition quality works, but they will also preserve study pieces for future research.  A small library will also be established to protect slide, print and catalogs for academic research.

What an achievement, Elise!
