Black Is Black
Black as night, little black dress, black as my soul, these are expressions using the color black. The color black, when used in polymer clay as a medium sets off other colors, making them more vibrant and vital.
I have chosen some pieces made by members of the Polymer Clay Smoosher's Guild on Art Fire to highlight this.

The use of black in this pendant by Valerie's Stuff really shows off the flame pattern in this striking pendant.

OOAK Cat Sculpture by Creative Critters
And Creative Critters talented use of black for her cat sculpture brings back memories of some of my favorite kitties.
All in all, I think the color black draws our eyes to a piece of jewelry the way no other color does.
