Not too long ago, the esteemed polymer clay artist and instructor, Helen Breil, shared a while with us and gave us a private “wander” via her paintings and the way her work has modified, grown, and advanced over time. (TIP: There are dozens of artist interviews out there on the Insiders platform…and we’re including extra on a regular basis!)
Deep dives into an artist’s evolution are at all times fascinating since you get to listen to their although processes and be taught the story being their work, their inspirations, and why they do what they do. Helen’s work is immediately recognizable for its daring traces, wealthy textures, and saturated colours. And whereas Helen’s creative fashion is uniquely her personal, what’s most outstanding about her physique of labor is how each discovery introduced with it a course or tutorial that exposed new methods of utilizing the medium of polymer clay.
