Ways with Polymer Clay
It’s hard to believe that polymer clay—a bake-in-the-oven-plasticized
clay—is only 10 years old. Artists around the world almost immediately
capitalized on its easy-to-fashion, malleable properties. At first, most
products were jewelry—beads usually created to resemble Italian glass
millefiori. After early experimentation, items morphed into decorative
accessories as well. McMillan straddles both sides and has the added
advantage of tapping into the different expertise and styles of a variety
of practitioners. Techniques, too, have expanded, using older methods such
as gilding and glazing and newly invented methods such as the Skinner
blend (melded colors) and image transfers. Even better, crafters can pick
from among 31 projects, ranging from traditional (Chinese good-luck
lantern) to extraordinarily modern (tiny jointed teddy bear). A gallery of
artist at the end adds insight and inspiration.(144 pages, 300+ color
photos, 10” x 8.5” x 0.5”/ paperback) by Dotty McMillan
