About FimoCreations
- No two FimoCreations figurine are alike.
- Tile designs may include classical Moorish motifs, Native American spirits, Celtic themes, and ancient petroglyphs.
- Using a polymer or non-terrestrial clay, artist Jon Anderson blends colors to create a striking variety of hues.
- "Canes" of colored clay are then laid out to form the shape he envisions, then cut into tiny individual tiles.
- Each sculpture is crafted from hundreds of these tiles, applied in a range of patterns to an interior form of hand-carved wood or leftover clay.
- Completed sculptures are repeatedly fired and cooled, sometimes creating tiny fissures or "crazing" that further distinguishes each piece.
- When the firing process is complete, each piece is hand-finished for a brilliant satin appearance.
