Inspired by Ceramic Textures
So, I thought we’d spend some time on this blog each week looking at potential inspiration from areas outside of polymer. We already take so many techniques and processes from other types of art so it’s not a stretch to think that there is just a ton of non-polymer art that can inspire our work.
Here we have ceramic artist Andy Rogers, He is quite the texture fiend. (Geez … sounds like someone else we know!) The colors, forms and texture he uses could all be replicated in polymer. I also like the arrangement of forms he puts together to link and contrast them in one cohesive composition. This kind of presentation of polymer work is not that common but doesn’t it get you thinking about what you might be able to do with your work?
Do you have favorite artists or pieces of art that aren’t polymer but has influenced what you do? If so, I would love to help you share that here on the TPA blog. Send links to me at sbray@thepolymerarts.com
The first polymer artist that came to mind was Dan Cormier but the piece centre left has a look of Helen Briel’s radiating lines to it. Great inspiration.
I love the natural sea the shapes the colors the texture and more.
