5.0 out of 5 stars A real inspiration!!, 29 Sep 2007
By Carol Blackburn (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Polymer clay artists are frequently inspired by other art forms -from fibre and metalwork to painting and sculpture. Judy shows how to turn inspiration into reality and just how versatile polymer clay is for this purpose.

Each chapter starts from a material-based art tradition, eg. glass, metal, wood, and develops the techniques associated with these crafts in concise, clearly explained projects. Each technique has a gallery of beautiful examples of both the source artforms, such as exquisite pieces of wood furniture, and several works in polymer clay inspired by the material and sometimes combined with it in mixed media objects. Judy has selected her gallery artists with care - the best work by the best artists -dazzling! By illustrating high standards of design and execution, she places Polymer Clay on an equal footing with older art material traditions and demands that we keep aiming higher. For me this is the real inspirational effect of a great book. Well done, Judy Belcher.

Carol Blackburn, author of 'How to Make Polymer Clay Beads'
