It's interesting to me to look at things and then be able to hatch an
idea from my brain, through my fingers and into existence. I suspect
that this process may be interesting to you as well. That's what this
book is all about. I'd like you to see what I see and get inside my
brain a little and create with me. I have ideas to share, and creative
nudgings and suggestions and even explanations (with step-by-step
pictures!) of techniques and to make things. Because I travel across the
country, and around the world, looking at things, I thought it might
also be fun to share some of those observations and adventures, in case
they amuse you and make you think of something creative to do with the
shared experience. And interspersed throughout are sketches I've made
along the way. Make of them what you will. So it's my hope that this
book - part travel journal, part sketchbook, part creative guidebook -
may enlighten your artistic journey! Let's see what we can see together!
Do You See What I See is a little philosophical, a little story-telling,
a lot making! With creative suggestions, ideas, techniques and how-to
step-by-step projects.This book is a sketchbook, travel journal,
creative guidebook, all in one. Entertaining and enlightening, and
written in Christi's conversational style, the humor and easy
instructions will ensure that this book has a special place in your
studio and in your heart. Polymer clay is the main focus of the projects
and techniques, but epoxy clay, resin and other materials make frequent
appearances to give this a well-rounded mixed media vibe.Any person who
values creativity will find this an interesting read.
