Lovingly dedicated to the Magnificent Ones those daring to dream of creating the wondrous and unique and to that exact moment when stepping back to see a masterpiece realized. Whether the masterpiece is a work of art or of your life, it matters not as long as you see it for what it is. It's all the same in the end.
For my family, husby and champion Charley Slaughter, pupsters and studio thrashers Solow and Hootie, my kids who are all grown up now (and quite well I might add!) Shawn, Sarah, Christine and Ben, you are all such amazing artists and are so cool you inspire me more than you know, my mom Martha Marie (yooo hoooo you!), my sister Donna who so patiently listens to my latest kooky ideas and doesn't say they are kooky, my other sister Diana who passed on but is still with me every day, her son Jim the Pinball Wizard, and all my extended family (even those of you who will never admit we're related (he he he)). Thanks for all your love, support and encouragement. OK, I am crying now so thanks also for the happy tears.
To Alicia Caudle of Altered Bits, who besides consistently ranking the highest on Google for altered art also ranks way up there for friendship, inspiration and an unending stash of the coolest ever found objects on her site.
To Jean Van Brederode, proprietor of CharmdImSur etsy shop and enamelist extraordinaire, thanks for befriending us and sharing the ride! It wouldn't be the same without you, Dear One.
To Maryann Ott who first told me about this magical clay so many years ago and encouraged me to try it.
To Erin and Amber at Aves Studio for their technical support, friendship and assistance. You rock. Your company rocks. And your clay is hard as a rock.
To Jerry at Silpak for even more technical support. Your magical silicone molds have helped me immensely and are used in so many projects in this book. It would be easy to fill several more books with things made from your awesome products. I'm really looking forward to experimenting more with them.
Most special thanks to Jenny Dill who without your help during the last frantic weeks of making works in progress this book would not have been finished in time. Your friendship and help came at the most perfect time. You are an answer to my prayers!
And to all members of the Mixed-Media Art ning site it is a daily gift to see what you are all doing.
T here was a time not so long ago when I was unable to separate myself from my art, and I dreaded anyone seeing it for fear they might not like it. Thankfully, those days are long gone. These days I find myself at ease, even when I receive less-than-enthusiastic reactions. In a way, it's actually an affirmation that I'm staying true to my artistic voice.
I first became aware that I had left my fearful-reaction days behind when I stopped off one day at my sister's house on my way back home from Artfest in Port Townsend, Washington. Diana had friends over that evening for dinner, and everyone wanted to see the class projects I made at the retreat. I laid them proudly on the table. They wandered over from the living room chatting excitedly about wanting to see what I'd made. As they reached the table, it suddenly became very quiet and they all just stared. There might as well have been dissected frogs laying there judging by their reactions. I couldn't help laughing because they thought my things were so odd. I told them not to worry since my things were definitely not for everyone.
It wasn't any one monumental thing that propelled me to the place where I am now it was two things! The first was having someone I greatly admire as an artist tell me that I do good work. The second one was having epoxy clay in my studio (for more than ten years now) to help me actually make what my overactive imagination comes up with in any given week.
