Also available as an ebookLCCN:2012-011921Reviews:"Judy Belcher and Tamara Honaman's new book, Polymer Clay Master Class: Exploring Process, Technique, and Collaboration with 11 Master Artists can be used as a 'how-to' book, however that is not its main attribute. Lots of publications tell you how to make something through carefully written text steps and accompanying photos, but Polymer Clay Master Class goes beyond that and examines the creative process itself. Unlike the others, this volume offers an opportunity to read 'between the lines' along the path of creating." --Polymer Art ArchiveLC Classification Number:TT297.B454 2012ISBN-10:0823026671Author:Tamara Honaman, Judy BelcherDewey Decimal:745.57/23gtin13:9780823026678Item Width:8.6 inDewey Edition:23Item Weight:23.1 OzIllustrator:YesItem Length:10.8 inNumber of Pages:160 PagesISBN-13:9780823026678
