OMG! My New Book...
Jun 12, 2009
Good god...where have I been? I've been meaning to sit down for the last few days and just pound something out...amazing how bloggers and facers and all those others think EVERYONE wants to hear what they have to say...boy, do I have news for them...
Anyway, I've been busy reading an absolutely fanastic new book...Ronna Sarvas Weltman's "Ancient Modern." It really is a terrific book...the photograhy is second to none. Now, Ms. Weltman does not show any great technical procedures for polymer clay in this book (although I know she knows PC like a pro!). What she does show is her brilliance with design. She can take a basic polymer clay technique that a blind beginner could do and turn it into something absolutely mouth-watering! I suggest anyone who has more than a passing interest in polymer clay (and $24 to spend!) buy the book and devour it. The photo I attached is what I HAD to do after going through the book...I thought some of her organic beads would be stunning in just black and copper. I think I was right. I'm very pleased with it...and anyone can make these beads. That's another good thing about her book. She shows a piece of jewelry, then tells you how to make each individual bead. It's really one of the best PC books I've read.
Have a brilliant weekend!
