The 52 week art challenge has now started for 2011, but it's not too late to join in! The idea is to create one finished peice of work per week, every week for the rest of 2011. It can be anything from painting, scrapbooking, writing or even cooking! How ever you like to express yourself. We started this blog to upload the artwork of the participants. Please let us know if you want us to enable you to post your art on this blog. Looking forward to a creative year with you guys!

Thoughts from the studio: 12/52 – Copper and Polymer Clay Necklace: "This necklace sort of evolved over a period of a week. I made the wooden look beads from polymer clay and used stamps..."

3-7 last instalment!
Week 7
Chained bead necklace! This one took me 3 days of work. I need practise on my loop making skills (that is not the correct term) but I dont hate it for my first attempt!

Week 6
Earrings! Made from the same shell's as the necklace.
I did make the hooked part (aka ear wires) aswell...
Not the greatest but the second pair with beads turned out much better and I even wore them on the beach last weekend!

Week 5, Wire bending and polymer clay.
You will have to wait to see this weeks art project to see my polymer clay work but here was my first wire bending experiment.
Shells were taken off an old hat that had seen better days, wire was then bent in to the shell with beads added, the chord is made of a hemp braid then the clasp is a simple hook.
