Scarves of the Bride's Maids


 Wedding Color Hot Pink, Black, and White Ivory

Bride's Maid scarves
This is a brief view of the scarves I made from scratch for my brides maids to go along with a black dress I hoped they already had hanging in their closet. They turned out lovely. I started out with plain hot pink fabric and learned how to use a sewing machine to create a "rolled hem" stitch for the edges. I added the black ribbon as well using a sewing machine to create a frame overall look. I hand-sewed my sister's name into the fabric while adding beads throughout the name. I also added an intricate image to go along with the dress that I wore on my wedding day.
This piece Honor's Jesus because I used my God given talent to create and save on what would have cost a fortune if I had bought brides maid dresses instead.

My wedding gloves

This piece was originally bought at Clair's at the Mall. This piece contained just the glove itself and the plain white flower top and ruffle on edges. I enhanced it by adding embellishments such as intricate bead work along with sparkles and a rose to top it off. I wanted it to have more shimmer.

"Helping Hands" Acrylic on canvas. Clare Polcar. 2011

This is a story about a man that loves to go fishing. On his vacation, he was envited to join some friends and their children to go catch fish.


This man then decided not to fish, but to teach the children how to fish. He made it so every child he saw got a chance at catching a first fish.



In the end, he said "fishing" is like sharing the "Gospel". One has to wait until the fish are hungry to catch anything.

"Freedom", Acrylic on Canvas. 2008. Clare Polcar

If you look close, I will tell you a secret. Can you find her?

Light comes bursting through from the hands that represent Jesus.



This demon is red with rage. Now that his prisoner is freed, he has to go to his leader empty handed.





Here is an exposed being. Yet he is not fully aware of his freedom .



The complete view. The women in my perspective resembles the bride of Jesus.

Jesus and Art




Art without inspiration and proper care does not grow by itself. If it does, I don't know how that would happen. In My perspective, it takes effort, and consistancy in order to turn out ripe. I just pray that my art which only comes through inspiration blooms in the right direction. Also, I pray that my art can be used as a tool to express God's view on what ever topic I have been given inspiration towards. I also pray that my inspirations would be Godly inspirations! Amen!-Clare
P.S. This was planted by my awesome sister Katy Thompson!
