Elaine Yurewich

Elaine Yurewich has worked as a freelance artist for more than 40 years. She has been working with polymer clay since 1992, but it wasn’t until 2012 she discovered the art of making canes. Elaine loves creating works of art in many forms and Polymer Clay allows her to experiment and put into a three-dimensional form, the continual creative ideas she has. She has sold her work nationwide and internationally. She has been published in Polymer Clay magazines and sells her work in juried art fairs and craft festivals. Elaine also has two Etsy shops where she sells both her polymer clay and her visual artworks including portraits. She has taught in Georgia and New York in schools and community arts centers.
