I am very pleased to have found The Art House. It feels very friendly and seems to have a great sense of community. A little about myself...hmmm...I guess it should be art related... have a Bachelors of Art in Fine Art with special studies on the human figure, a Bachelors of Science in Education, I have hours in Commercial Art and Anthropology ( love that stuff...ask me about my dream job). I have studied privately under Delena Dotson and Richard Barton [link] where I served served as a model for Mr. Barton in his adult figure drawing classes. I am an Environmental and Spatial Technologies facilator, a College Mentor and Cohort Educational Specialist that works with various universities in our state and their art department students who work as interns under me. I have done private tutoring through the local Arts Center and on my own and have taught night Community Courses at the local University. I have been in the field for over 20 years where I have illustrated numerous book jackets and interior illustrations from Science Fiction,Romance, Children's and Fantasy novels. My work has been featured in ImagineFX, Fangoria, and A Companion in Zeor. I have also illustrated RPG card and am currently working on a Graphic Novel adaptation for The House of Zeor and a Fantasy RPG mobile game. I I like videogames.....there...I said it....I am an adult gamer but I come by it honestly...I started with PONG...Oohh and I am a Trekkie!!!

		Alice Stroppel over 2 years I'm not really a 2D artist and was trying to push myself. As far as learning polymer clay., there are thousands of places to go on the net to learn. My blog has some simple things I've been sharing and I hope to do more after the holidays. http://polymerclayetc. Put for lists of what you need and lots of free tutorials, just google Polymer clay basics and you'll get tons. Ask me anything, I'll be happy to help.
