Once again the Wayne Art Center’s annual Craft Forms exhibition will include a stunning work of polymer art.  Jeffrey Lloyd Dever’s Serendipity is not only included in the show but featured on the cover of the invitation to the opening on December 2, 2011.  The center, located in Wayne, PA, is presenting its 17th annual showcase of fine craft.  This year the juror is Elizabeth Agro from the Philadelphia Museum of Art.  Polymer artists included in prior annual shows have been Cynthia Toops, Elise Winters, Ford and Forlano and Loretta Lam.   The Craft Forms 2011 exhibit will be open through January 21, 2012.

I cannot remember a time in my life that I wasn't interested in looking at art, talking about art and the making of art. In 1990 I earned a Phd in art history at the University of Maryland. My first experiences with polymer clay were in 1992, but I consider my real work with the medium to date from 1999.
