"Polymer Clay Out of Control:
Twenty Years of Exploration and Obsession"
by
Bonnie Bishoff
How do you go from making polymer clay beads to creating marquetry like veneers for furniture? Obsession seems to be the right term. Since I was introduced to polymer clay over twenty years ago I cannot stop thinking about it and playing with it. It is the ideal medium for idea hamsters and out of the box thinkers. I will share a slide show that depicts the cross-section and development of our furniture and polymer clay techniques over the last 20 years. In addition there will be lots and lots of samples and I will give a demonstration of my most recent focus on marquetry-like millefiori veneers.
