in a bold move, graphic designer and illustrator francoise guitton produced a body of work that consists of polymer clay characters she builds, clothes, bakes and frames. this new work marks a departure from her traditional illustrations, which require guitton to start by drawing formal sketches to take the artist from concept to reality.
for the costumed characters, she studies books about fashion and clothing from different periods of history, but prefers to use instinct and sense of play to create each piece, turning the idea of sketch-to-reality on its head. passionate about details, the artist strives to make the viewer forget the nature of the raw materials. guitton experiences a palpable excitement as she manipulates the clay into faux textiles. the result? more than sixty dazzling three-dimensional fashionista sketches.

This might give me a idea of what to do with my eyeglass frame guy that I made. Thanks.
