Once upon a time, the mention of polymer clay evoked nostalgic recollections of summer camp and kids' crafts. The colorful, plastic-additive based clay presented the perfect medium for a child's imagination to soar. Today, with more specialized formulas and a wider range of tools available, polymer clay has finally begun to gain recognition for an even better use - as the most versatile artistic medium for the imaginations of crafters and artisans all over the world. Polymer clay can be easily manipulated to simulate any kind of fabric, semi-precious stone, and even fur and skin. The sky is truly the limit once you've learned some of the techniques for realistic polymer clay creations. Have you ever suspected that you don't have artistic talent? Chances are, you just haven't found the right medium yet. Millions of artists can't paint or draw, but show extraordinary talent in other areas. If you've ever used polymer clay to make beads for a friendship bracelet or for those cutesy little frog sculptures, then the techniques contained in Katherine Dewey's Creating Lifelike Figures in Polymer Clay: A Step-by-Step Guide lie within your grasp. With a little expert guidance, you might be amazed at what types of sculpture you can do.
