Polymer clay is alive and well in Singapore, thanks in part to Garie Sim. He posted photos on his blog of clay creations made by one of his students, Samantha, inspired by my book, Fairies, Gnomes and Trolls. What fun! it's humbling to see a reflection from half a world away.

Thank you, Garie, for sending the link.  Loved it.  And I really like how
you expressed yourself when you said that polymer clay is a physical
language that can be shared with people all over the world.  True.

I'll try to check in to your blog from time to time to see what is happening
at your place.

Best wishes from Minnesota, USA

Polymer Clay And Creative Kids Of Singapore


Kids Needs Space, a space for creative play with polymer clay, a space for learning a life skill to enhance the young creative mind, a space to improve hand-eye coordination, a space to develop fine motor skill, a space to improve good color sense, a space to cultivate a visual sense of proportion, a space of fun in clay art, a space to share and learn from each other, a space that will help the child to become self-confident, a space that will expand our creative Art Culture for the society.

  • Mickie McClain Your kids are amazing as always. I was really tickled with Vera's work ... she made her cat so much bigger than her own self in the sculpture and I'm thinking that, from her point of view, it means that her kitty is very important to her and very much loved. Just delightful to see the world through a child's eyes! xoxo

  • Garie Sim Thanks Mickie, good comments! I like her simplicity in creating the clay art, the child's loves for animal will always come first. When you are teaching kids, you have to understands their concept and approached to clay.
