Jon Anderson Fimo
Fimo Creations Fimo Sculptures by Jon Stuart Anderson
There are many forms of fimo creations but none so interesting as those by Jon Anderson. He has taken a page from the intricacies of millifoire glass and applied similar techniques to creating fimo canes and subsequent tiles that he then places on various animal shapes. The final fimo animal is incredibly detailed with superb shadings only attainable by the lengthy cane making process. What you see on the finished fimo sculpture as a small quarter inch tile of ladybug may have started out as a design over 6 inches across.
One of the more enjoyable parts of our dealing with his work is that it is constantly changing. When Jon makes a particular cane and cuts it into the small tiles his studio will use to make the fimo sculptures it is a unique design in a limited number of pieces defined by the size of the cane. It will be used along with hundreds of other tiles to make any given fimo animal and when it is finally used up its gone and no longer available in exactly the same way. If for instance you purchased a piece last year and it had a beautiful humming bird used on it we can't get the same piece again this year. All of the pieces you see pictured on this site have been individually photographed so that you are seeing the actual piece you are getting. So if you see something you love, bookmark the page, and come back in a month it may well have been sold and replaced with a newer piece.
I love photographing his work because when it is on my computer as a complete photo image before I crop and shrink it for the web I can see far more detail than I can holding the piece in my hand. I notice little things that I would miss otherwise and call Karen in to see the line of small buffalo curving around like a small chain or the whale tails on the penguins, etc. etc.. It's a wonder we get any work done at all those days.So now being a bit more familiar with his work:
