• Polymer Clay as been used as modeling clay for decades. A technique called caning was borrowed from the Venetians. To create these canes, the colored modeling clay is formed together like a thick puzzle and once the desired design is achieved each cane is compressed, rolled, stretched, pulled, pinched, squeezed and smoothed until the desired size and shape is achieved. I create with my Heart and Spirit, and am largely influenced by Egyptian, Asian, Tribal and Shamanic Art, which are some of my favorite. My pieces are infused with my love for life. With every piece I make it is my desire to pass on the passion I feel through its creation -Klew of Spirited Bead & Klews' Gallery See these one of a kind creations at the Pasadena Bead and Design Show January 18-20 Hilton Pasadena #pasadenabeadanddesignshow #beadanddesign #klew #polymerclay #handmadebeads #artisan #maker #pasadena #beads

  • Blouses and skirts for the women who dance the dance of life! The vibrant colors, melded together creating works of art -and bringing the wearer joy! Find Anna Konya at Pasadena Bead and Design Show Jan 18-20. Now that I have been making skirts for over half a century, guess I'll continue, mainly because I do love it. Working with fabric, color, texture, never skimping on quality, continuing to be devoted to excellence, I’m free to be more creative than ever. Expressive clothing for the women who enjoy the dance of life! With you in mind, I focus on quality detail, craftsmanship, and character. I like to combine interesting fabrics, and it is fun for me to apply a technique of bending the colors by overlaying fabrics with various embellishments. Sometimes I use earth tones that become vivid as a result of the embellishment. Each piece is a chameleon, blending with many different colored accessories. - Anna Konya #beadanddesign #pasadenabeadanddesignshow #annakonya #gypsy #artwear #dance #pasadena
