The Fairy Society - An Enchanted Social Network For All Artists And Their Friends

Have you ever dreamed of a magical place where you and all of your artsy friends can live together in peaceful creativity alongside Kings, Queens, Wizards, Magicians, Fairies, Elves and all creatures of fantasy? The Kingdom is calling - come one, come all!

This lens is all about the wonders of The Fairy Society Online Community. Here you'll find a gathering of independent artists, crafters, designers, musicians, writers, poets, painters, retailers, bloggers, entrepreneurs and more. It's a place where you can meet and form friendships with new and established and even some very famous artists. Spend hours viewing their incredible work and benefit from the wisdom and support they so generously share. Promote your own work and learn new ways to get your art out into the world.

While the theme of the site is fairy and fantasy art and the majority of members work in these genres, all artists, collectors and admirers are welcome.

Take a look at my lens, Creating Polymer Clay Artist Dolls to learn more about how membership at TFS has helped me grow as an artist. Stop by my page at The Fairy Society and my website, Parthena B - Dreams In Polymer Clay And Wire to learn more about TFS and creating with polymer clay.

What The Fairy Society Has Done For Me

Or, Why I Love It

Although I have been working with polymer clay for a little over five years, I'm new to artist doll sculpting. A number of incredible artists have been approachable and have offered advice, encouragement and support, enabling me to advance much faster than I would have on my own. I've become friends with other new artists to share the journey and grow with as well.

Become A Fairy Artist

Rent Tutorial DVD's At SmartFlix

I ran across SmartFlix.com How-To DVDs while searching for some do it yourself instructions on repairing my clothes dryer. Just for the thrill of it, I entered "polymer clay" into the site search. You could have knocked me over with a feather when I found that they not only carry basic tutorials but that they also have DVD's from some of the most famous and admired artists in the medium.

Donna Kato, Patricia Rose, Wendy Froud, Sue Heaser and White Gothic Studios are just a few among the artists and experts in the category.

These DVD's can be expensive to purchase. I know that it would take me quite a while to be able to buy all of the ones on my wish list. With SmartFlix, you can have an entire library at your fingertips! You can study up on personal finance and real estate as well as train your dog or learn to fly a plane!

The site also runs holiday specials. For Father's Day, they offered 10% off rentals. Join today and open up a whole new world!
