What is Modelene?
 | "Rock Art" |
MODELENE is a modelling compound, which when cured at 130°C (270°F) hardens to a strong, flexible plastic.
Once hardened, MODELENE can be carved, sculpted, painted, stamped, textured, sanded, drilled and polished. It can be used to simulate semi-precious stones, metals, wood, "mille fiori"; the ancient Venetian method of making glass beads, and may even be silk-screened onto. By using any one of the above techniques, which is by no means a complete list, or a combination of several you can create jewellery, buttons, 'ancient artifacts', and many ornamental items for your home. The list is endless.the possibilities are only limited by your imagination!
As an art medium Modelene, also known as polymer clay, has come of age! No longer regarded as just a child's toy, rather, it stands worthy of being a legitimate art form in it's own right!
Through this website we hope to share with you some of the magic that IS Modelene!
Thanks must go to all the polymer clay artists the world over for their never-ending search for new and exciting techniques, and willingness to share their discoveries.
