My name is Eugena.

I've been working with polymer clay for more than 15 years.

Being a chemist by education, I find the possibilities of this material really fascinating.

After trying my hand in nearly every existing technique for polymer clay, I started experimenting with it and finding my own ways with this material. Polymer clay presents simply endless opportunities for a creative person, and that is exactly what attracts me to this material. I love figuring out how to do something new with it, but making the same things over and over again is not for me. I guess, my tutorials are a happy compromise – I come up with a new idea, make as many items as needed to master and polish this technique, and then I am ready to move on. Summarizing my experiments in step-by-step tutorials gives a purpose to these activities, and (I hope!) benefits those who want to learn from me.
