Making Bonhommes from Answermen Ltd. on Vimeo.

Checkout this video of Julie making her annual batch of Christmas tree ornaments… this year she’s using a polymer clay that bakes to a hard finish - then painting the finer features with acrylic.

The Bonhommes she’s making in the video are caricatures of our family - she does a great job of capturing our key “features”! Share your thoughts  about her artwork.
