Dreaming in color

Cecilia Leonini dreams in color on PolymerClayDaily.com

What is it about the Dreaming in Color brooch by Italy’s Cecilia Leonini that feels calm, happy, and dreamy?

The gradation of her colors is masterful and the floating shapes (drawn and painted, I’m guessing) feel 3D.

The edges flip up to reveal hot red underneath.  There’s texture in the base layer and a black shadow on the edges. Super cool and totally dreamy.

You’ll find her on Facebook and Etsy.
