About the Artist

Jon Stuart Anderson

This highly collected Polymer Clay artist is renown globally for his mastery of polymer clay caning. Each “cane” is made with individual colors and shapes to create pictorial images, such as dragonflies, elephants, and fish, plus motifs based on classical ornamentation. Once these intricate canes are constructed and formed into large loaves, the loaves are reduced to form miniature art pieces. These tiny complex canes are painstakingly sliced and applied to create a “dermis” over the armatures. These astonishing works of art are truly one-of-a-kind and never duplicated exactly. Although Jon is known for his canework animals, savvy collectors also seek out his vessels, lamps and flatwork.

Jon’s one-of-a-kind sculptures have been acquired by collectors as diverse as US President Bill Clinton, Pearl Jam drummer Dave Abbruzzese, and fans all over the world as quickly as Jon can make them.

“This close-up highlights Jon's mastery at bringing light, texture and movement into this flat art medium. The color shading bringing pieces to life while the addition of light gives the illusion that a piece is curved when in fact it is not. Jon Stuart Anderson is the undisputed master of polymer clay as a serious art medium worldwide. No contest. To own his sculptures is a constant revelation of his mastery...always something new to discover, marvel at and treasure.”

"Jon provides great joy to me and numerous others thru his amazing talent. Too often great artists aren’t fully recognized for their amazing talent and ability. I’ve never seen anyone come close to Jon’s amazing talent in this genre, which is amazing in itself!
Jon puts them all to shame!!
Long Live The King!!!"
