Textured Polymer Clay Inchies by MandarinMoon on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Just finished this group of inchies. Each is 1" square (hence the name ) All color comes from the clay, the only paint used was a wash of black acrylic to enhance the textures. These took FOREVER!

I am working on a tutorial that I will post on ClayLessons.com for them. I wanted to show how subtle changes in shade and tone add depth and interest. I only used a handful of tools. They are not hard to make, they just take patience and time. Some of the little dots are smaller than a grain of salt. o_O My eyes are not what they used to be and I always have to work with a magnifying glass.

If you are interested, here is a link to my Etsy shop www.etsy.com/shop/MandarinMoon

Inchies are tiny little works of art that can be made of all kinds of materials. The only rule is that they must measure one inch square. They can be displayed in groups or individually, can be made into magnets, used in mosaic art projects or whatever else you can imagine.
