Unique creations by top artists such as Nan Roche, Cynthia Toops, Barbara McGuire, and Gwen Gibson make this the best showcase of polymer clay work ever assembled. With everything from jewelry and vessels to art dolls and sculptures displayed in superb color photos, the versatility and beauty of the medium is exquisitely evident. Mosaics, millefiori, canework, and molded, stamped, and embossed pieces: there’s a little bit of everthing to please the eye. Dayle Dorowshaw’s magical Egyptian Spell Book features carvings and image transfers that blend seamlessly with gold leaf, candles, branches, and silver. Luann Udell’s faux-ivory artifacts take their inspiration from the prehistoric art in France’s Lascaux Caves. It’s the largest—and finest—book of contemporary polymer art available anywhere.

Nice Pictures,
By
This review is from: 400 Polymer Clay Designs: A Collection of Dynamic & Colorful Contemporary Work (500 Series) (Paperback)
This book has nice photos of great creations by polymer clay artist. The photos are not small with only one or two items on each page. It gives the name of the artist, and some of the materials used. It has no instructions for any projects or techniques, so if that's what you want don't buy this. If you are already a great polymer clay artist, you will find inspiration looking at the pictures. Most are very complicated and are not for beginners. It's a great price for so many pages of photos.

Pictured something different,

This review is from: 400 Polymer Clay Designs: A Collection of Dynamic & Colorful Contemporary Work (500 Series) (Paperback)
This was a book of brilliant, professional, and beautiful polymer clay designs and product. Unfortunately, I wanted to know how the designers made these pieces (at least a short synopsis) and there was not a hint of that in any one of the pieces that I liked. So if you want a book of designs and creations only of very, very talented artists -- this is the book for you.
