As you see here, you\u00a0can use polymer painting as a decorative approach to jewelry or small functional objects as well as for wall art.<\/p>\n<p>To get you jump-started on these ideas, why don&#8217;t you jump\u00a0over to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fionaabel-smith.co.uk\/\">Fiona Abel-Smith&#8217;<\/a>s tutorial where she shows you how to create these little tree paintings that can be used for pendants or brooches. You can also peek in on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fionaabel-smith.co.uk\/polymer-clay-art-works.html\">her website<\/a> where I encourage you to check out her Pietra dura polymer pieces.<\/p>\n<p>Just click the image here to get to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=T1OH6UUdgXU&amp;feature=share\"> the YouTube video tutorial<\/a>.
