If you clay, you may have heard of the Sutton slice technique. I’m not that familiar with it so went looking for a quick run down and lucked out! Larissa Joonas has a photo tutorial of a basic go at it on her Flickr. The first picture and step is this one. Afterwards, simply click thru her photostream. She has other tutorials and pretties as well.
Elaine, you find the Sutton Slice being done by Lisa Pavelka in her latest book. It’s really a lot of fun and can turn out to be very interesting.
I bet! I’m going to have to play around with the idea – I’m trying to work my way out of my caning-only shell.
