Betsy Baker interprets in polymer clay
There
is a lot to admire and to enjoy in her jewelry.
various smooth and textured surfaces of
natural materials like marble, rock, sand, linen
and paper, using numerous mixed-media
surface
techniques. Once that portion of her work
is done it's then combined with a focal point of
hand-forged fine and sterling silver.
Her meticulous
attention to surface effects allows
for a wide range of
patterns and textures, as well as
investigations of color, dimension and geometric forms.
These forms blend harmoniously
with
those tiny focal points. Each embellishment is
protectively placed into a recessed opening
reminiscent of a window or portal to
another enchanting dimension.
One's attention is continuously drawn to
multiple levels of distinctive
dimensional and textural effects.
It's not easy to select a favorite.
It's so true....VERY hard to pick a favorite. Great stuff Betsy! ~Laura C.
