Happy Wednesday everyone!<\/p>\n

This week for our first official featured artist of the week, I bring to you one of my favorite polymer clay artists, Sugar Spice Snails.<\/p>\n

If you like snails and fun themes, you will love Brittany’s work!<\/p>\n

“Courage the Cowardly Dog Snail” created by Sugar Spice Snails<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Brittany is currently located in Indianapolis, and has been creating unique snails using polymer clay for about 2 years now.<\/p>\n

She has a degree in Art Education, focusing in Ceramics. She found that polymer clay was fun and convenient to work with.<\/p>\n

I can’t help but agree with her there, polymer clay is also one of my favorite mediums.<\/p>\n

Sugar Spice Snails came across my for-you page one day, and I absolutely fell in love with the creativity that Brittany brings to what is otherwise such a simple creature.<\/p>\n

I asked Brittany what keeps her motivated to create, and this is what she said;<\/p>\n

“A lot of things, but primarily the reactions and support that I get from the people who have found me online. I also just really enjoy the mental puzzle of figuring out how to combine two totally different subjects in a way that makes visual sense and is interesting to look at. The fact that I’ve been lucky enough to sell my work regularly is also a good motivator.”<\/p>\n

I personally have loved seeing the wonderful things she’s been able to turn into a snail. Not to mention the beautiful details that she includes in every snail created. They’re wonderfully sculpted, painted, and each have such a different bold personality.<\/p>\n

The thing I love the most about these creations is that she’s made so many themes that I guarantee you’ll find one you enjoy ! I’ve included some various examples in this post, but I don’t do the amount of work and effort any justice, you need\u00a0<\/em>to see these for yourself. I promise you won’t be disappointed!<\/p>\n

Below you can follow Sugar Spice Snails and check out more of Brittany’s wonderful work on your own! Please show her the love and support she deserves!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
