I'm Merry Skyer, an art teacher sharing my love of clay with the world.
My art obsession started with playdough and polymer clay, and three decades later, I've built my life around clay. I sell my work on my Etsy shop, but what I love more than making art is teaching it!
I was an art major in college, with a focus on ceramics, then went on to get my Masters in art education. I taught in public schools and adult art education for 13 years, and now I'm taking my lessons online to share with the world.
This is a place for you to explore your artistic side. I'm here to teach, inspire, and guide you to a more creative life.
I hope you enjoy your stay here on my channel. Please feel free to reach out via email if you have any questions or just want to share your art with me! You can contact me at meredith@backyardchickenproject.com.

Hello Merry 🥰 Thank you for the video. My clay cracks when I flatten it do you happen to know why it happens?
Maybe try mixing with water (Depending on the clay your using)
It's because you got to like smoothing it out. Until kind of gets soft.
Adorable toads stools! I love it! Great tutorial. 🥰

These are adorable , it was fun to watch 😊
Is one lead hardness better than another...or a mechanical pencil or regular pencil better?
Good question! I'm actually going to make a video today about materials and drawing basics. I loooove mechanical pencils because they're so much easier, but when I don't have one I like to use an HB or B pencil for sketching. This is the mechanical pencil I love and use daily, Zebra Delguard 0.5: amzn.to/2Wnv5ma
