MINIMALISTIC

I love these Zig-Zag brooches and pendants by Petra Novakova (crazyday.etsy.com). Isn't it amazing how a few simple manipulations can produce such stunning designs in polymer clay? Beautiful and clever!

Find more works by Petra on her web site and in her photo-album.

    Eugena;
    I have been a lurker on your site and have followed you on several clay groups. I am intrigued by your work and also love your blog. Your taste of subject matter is right up my alley. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your blog.

    I have played with this technique not an easy one. Petra has done a great job. I enjoy watching her Esty site, she has mastered the art of using texture in her designs. Thank you for featuring her.

    Illaya,
    Thank you for the compliments.
    Petra does have a few different styles, and I was about to feature her stamped designs when I saw the Zig-Zag collection. I have never seen this technique before, and it intrigued me. I should have probably said “relatively simple manipulations”. I meant that creating a similar design in any other medium would be much more difficult and time-consuming. Only polymer clay, with its pliability and colors, makes it simpler.
