Fabiola
Fabiola has been working in polymer since 2010 when she discovered all the possibilities that the material offered. One workshop at a local arts and crafts shop was all it took to become captivated by the cheerful colors of polymer.
Fabiola has taken those bright colors and crated art work that she describes as work filled with vitality and vibrant passion while inviting viewers to live life filled with sensitivity and beauty. She enjoys crating pieces that are filled with rounded curves. Her main inspiration is drawn from nature such as plants, flowers and the ocean.
She says she is attracted to textures and how they can be applied to decorative items and jewelry. “I love the mix technique with all kinds of paint. It is my favorite …show more content…
“I always say to my students that the most important thing is to use your own imagination and to create directly form you heart with your own style; that is the only way that you can express yourself and make a difference to the work of others,” she said. She admits that the hardest part is for them to “know thyself”. She also stresses having basic color knowledge.
Fabiola feels that her work has evolved with an interior complexity that may not be noticeable on the surface of her work. She believes that her process has become more complex as she tests through trial and error. Her internal vitality is expressed in her work. “I go on by a particular path, my own vision of the world, so my work is becoming more and more individual also.”
Her work has been featured in “Polymer Clay Global Perspectives: Emerging Ideas and Techniques from 125 International Artists” by Cynthia Tinapple and “From Polymer To Art – speciale Nederlandstalig uitgave 2014 per stuk” by Saskia and Matjon.
You can find Fabiola with her husband, two sons and a dog in an apartment in Madrid where she enjoys Pilates and walking her dog. She enjoys the time off from teaching that she takes during the summer months where she locks herself in her loft and works on new ideas and techniques for the next class season. …show more content…
She has been working with polymer since the early 1970‘s. When she found out she and her husband were expecting their first child in 1970, she wanted to sculpt a mother and child figure and polymer offered the perfect medium. As her children grew, she used polymer to create small animals and miniatures. It was not until she joined the Chicago Area Polymer Clay Guild in 1999, that she discovered her path during the “Polymer Clay Haven 2001: A Clay Odyssey” by Tommie Howell. Her instructors included Karen Lewis, Marie Segal, Donna Kato, Kris Richards, Julie Wise and Irene
