Forcing spring flowers

by Cynthia Tinapple on March 11, 2010 · 13 comments

Zuda Gay's polymer sculpted flowersZuda Gay’s layered polymer flowers are about as close to spring as I’m able to get. Her sculpted cane slices and juicy colors are right on target.

Dahlias and sunflowers are her specialty and you can see an entire polymer garden on her Flickr pages.

Zuda shares a quick tutorial on her site if, like me, you can’t wait for spring. We seem to have brought the Ohio snow with us to Arizona.

I looked at her flickr pages and I think it’s safe to say she likes flowers. It makes me want spring to be here. Her work is beautifully detailed with colors that would inspire nature.
