Workshops

The art, imagery, and symbols of Africa inspired the work as students created grained ivory and turquoise from polymer clay that looked like the real thing. Heads and masks were inlaid with beads and carvings and highlighted with metallic designs. Everyone left the class with completed heads (and some beautiful beads) to be combined with fabric bodies at a later date.

Dayle Doroshow, an outstanding polymer clay artist, trained in traditional ceramics in NYC and sold her pottery in Greenwich Village. Today she is at the cutting edge of innovative polymer clay art and her jewellery, home décor items, spirit and art dolls, and handcrafted books can be found at galleries and art shows all along the west coast. Dayle has a busy teaching schedule, which includes the US, Canada, Mexico and France. She loves sharing the creative spirit with others and students clamour to attend her classes.
