Hey Aims, Elizabeth

I recently moved from Calgary to Swift Current but I ‘commute’ regularly. I had taught classes on polymer clay in Calgary over the years and there are a few other people who do clay (attached to the doll and minis groups mostly) in Calgary, Red Deer and Edmonton.

If you guys are still interested we should get together one of the next times I’m in town and do a little claying :)

Thanks Aims – I’ll keep my eyes open for classes in Calgary! I’m glad to know some might exist!

Elizabeth – I was told by a salesperson at Michael’s in Red Deer that there are polymer classes in Calgary. I know there is a group that meets there as well but will have to do some research on that.

If you hear of anything let me know too okay? I might be able to brave driving down in the snow.

Nice to See you Ken :-) Hopefully others see this and follow your handsome lead.

By the way, for anyone who has privacy issues with not wanting to show their face online, Gravatars can be pictures or images of anything you like… like your favorite bead or something like that.

Well, I guess I did, because there I am staring back at myself. :P

@Elizabeth – I don’t know of any polymer clay classes happening in Calgary but if something comes up, I’ll let you know.

@Polyanya – I learned from a personal development trainer once, that you should be feeling somewhere between excited and nervous for stuff like that… so it sounds like you’re in the zone :-)

@KenH – Glad you asked about the comment photos – they are called gravatars. I will be doing a special post about this as soon as I get a chance. It would be great to see more faces replacing those those sideways G symbols beside all of the wonderful comments here at the blog. Anyway, to answer your question, you can follow the link by my name for instructions on how to upload your personal gravatar. It’s really easy to do! In fact, here’s what Jaime-H said after getting her pic uploaded…

“Heyyy! Thanks for the tip on getting a gravatar. Wasn’t hard at all! I wondered how to do it but never managed to get around to asking. XOXO Jamie”

I have a picture I use for auditions, how do you load the photo so it’s used next to my comments?

Thank you Cindy, I am a bit nervous mind. But I am envious of your meet-up I hear she’s a lovely person, we actually look alike (speaking of lookie-likies).

Glad to hear you’re all meeting up again Penny.

I would love to come out to a class, but it’s a bit far. Does anyone know of any polymer artists in Calgary (or area) that offer classes?
