Creatures In Polymer Clay

Polymer clay lends itself well to sculpting.  Pieces can be sculpted in stages, baked, and put together either using a glue suitable for polymer clay or liquid polymer clay which is then baked again to cure it.  Or the polymer clay pieces can be sculpted as a whole and then baked.  Polymer clay is sturdy, once baked and can be sanded and painted, as desired, after it is cured.

These artists of the Polymer Clay Smoosher's Guild on Art Fire have mastered the technique of sculpting with polymer clay.  The pieces I've featured run the gambit from the sublime to the whimsical.
