My New Year's project

Hi Everyone,

I thought I'd start the new year actually planning a project. I've been madly in love with Jon Anderson's Fimo Creations/ ever since I saw his work in San Diego. So I'd like to try doing something similar. I love his colour schemes and the intricacy in his work.



I don't think I want to do an animal shape, so I've decided to cover a Werther's Christmas tin instead.










I'm now looking for inspiration for canes. I know for sure that I'm going to use the Tesselated Canes from Judy Belcher.


I also know that I want to incorporate Mike Buesseler style landscape canes/ into the work.















I think I'll also use some of my stained glass patterns to generate canes. Here's the first one that I want to try.



I think for now I need to start with a big whack of conditioned clay in the colours that I want. That should be interesting.

I'll post updates along the way but I expect this to be a six month project. I'm hoping to generate 20-30 canes.
