There’s a buzz around the neat colorful tumbling blocks canes by Germany’s ST-Art-Clay. This updated interpretation of the historic quilt pattern uses shades of the colors to give the design dimension created by extruded triangles and edging strips.
ST’s colors are vivid and fun and she shows lots of variations on her Flickr page. You can see that she’s taken great master classes and that caning is her forte. She is able to control her canes in ways that many of us envy. Did you see her wildlife canes? ST is about to go wild!

Wow! I loved the colors and the geometric patterns immediately but after looking at the first couple of pictures on her Flicker page, the pattern “popped” and I could see the 3-D of the tumbling blocks. Brilliant! You can see inside those cubes.
This is true mastery and excellence in polymer clay. Throughout her Flickr pages she shows us nothing but a fine grasp of color, design, control and finishing. ST-Art-Clay gets my applause and a standing ovation.
Thanks a lot for featuring my work at PCD!

I love this Bold, Bright cane. Just this morning, before opening Polymer Clay Daily, I discovered this artist’s work on Pinterest. I clicked on the Pinterest photo, and it took me to the Flickr page. I was amazed at the precision ST executes while applying techniques learned from the Masters. Beautiful, Designs, Color, and Finishing!

Ditto, Suzanne. I’m amazed at the amount of planning required to create those intricate “cubes.”
