Polymer Clay Fairy and Doll Artists

Fire Goddess Polymer Clay Sculpture by Parthena Black

2008 Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Fairy by Parthena Black

I’ve been fascinated with polymer clay artist dolls and fairies for years and never thought that I would be making them! I have a long way to go, but I’m getting better thanks to the support of other artists and the resources they’ve made available. The dolls I created in my early work had no faces, and for some reason always had ginormous breasts no matter what my intention was. A friend jokingly named them “boobdahs” because he said they looked like female Buddhas!

When I learned what Squidoo was and was inspired to write my first lens, I chose to write on  creating polymer clay artist dolls.  My intention was to share my learning experience and the resources I’m finding along the way that have helped me improve so much:

The Fairy Society Social Network and Marketplace was my choice for my second lens. My intention is to repay the creator of the network, Sherri Forrester-Baldy, creator of the new FuzzB, and all of the artists who had been so kind and supportive to me.  One can spend hours on the site just looking at thousands of photos of polymer clay dolls, jewelry and more as well as paintings and a variety of fantasy art in many mediums.

Creating Polymer Clay Artist Dolls

Squidoo gives lensmasters the opportunity to earn extra money by adding various feeds to their lenses.  I chose to link both of these lenses to polymer clay artist dolls and supplies on eBay.  If you are an artist or supplier, it’s worth your while to visit and link to these lenses, since your work may very well appear on them when you have a listing.  The eBay listings on my lenses rotate 24/7.  And, if you’re already a member of The Fairy Society, the lens contains an RSS feed to all of the blogs on the site. Many artists post photos of their work in their blogs, so they’re already getting more exposure. The additional clicks and links to my lenses will also serve to increase your visibility on the web and in the search engines.  If your site is relevant, leave a comment at Squidoo with your link and I’ll add it.

Writing your own Squidoo lens will also benefit your business. Your lens can be on any topic at all that you have some knowledge and expertise in.  You can then add links to your business, RSS feeds from your websites and blogs and more.  Sign up here:
