Ficroes - I am hiding, can you see me?

I am hiding, can you see me?
This guy manifested when I was making this little Ficroe:-)
What in the world is a Ficroe? :-)
A few years ago I invented this technique to "paint" with polymer clay and I really love it. I love polymer clay and all it's possibilities, and also that it lends itself to so many possibilities. I love making the beads but also these "paintings" and really, the sky is the limit to what one can make.

This one is a 20x20cm and as you see, you can make insertions, you can use the colors however you want to - and the result is just strong and durable..
(ehmm, unless you let it fall - the paper is more forgiving:-) )

I would also like to add that this material is not very good for Mama Earth and I hope that "they" will soon invent something that is more eco..


Cause living "green" like it is my intention does not always match with being an artist these days and I hope from all my heart that I can someday embody both qualities at the same time - and make the art I know is possible, with only green materials (or maybe I will have to invent something myself, we'll see about that)..:-)
