    I bought asparagus earrings for my wife last year for Valentine’s Day through Michele Tuegel Gallery in St. Pete. My wife is in love with them and all the positive comments she receives. Do you sell anywhere else in St. Pete or near St. Pete? Can I order on line? I would like to consider more of your work for this Valentine’s Day.

    Thanks!

    Sort of desperate.

    Hi Lindly; I just got your book last Saturday, It looks very technical and complex color theory like I studied in Art school.
    . I was hoping lots of great tutorials on how to make colorful jewelry like you make. I love the one on the cover of the book.
    I saw one of your bracelets on a donna kato video tutorial and I wanted to know how to make that bracelet so I was hoping to learn tutorials in the book. Do you have tutorial?

  3. I am the Workshops Coordinator at Artful Dimensions Gallery in Fredericksburg , VA. Every year we bring in artists from outside our area to teach workshops in 3-d arts! Last year we had the pleasure of hosting a second set of workshops with Lauri Mika, we also have had artist Julie Haymaker, felt artist Pam McGregor, weaver Martina Celerin and many others. I would love to talk with you about having you come and teach with us!!

    Hi Lindly
    I live in Australia, am a relatively new convert to polymer clay-ing and have been trying to buy a copy of your book “Polymer Clay Color Inspirations”. Sadly, I am told it is out of print now. I would dearly love to own this book, having seen older youtube reviews of it. Could you please consider issuing a reprint for us polyclayers “Down-under”? I am sure I am not the only person here wanting to buy this book. Please do reprint it. Thanks for your time.

      Thank you for your interest. Since the book is now ten years old and has already been reprinted, I doubt that Random House would consider reprinting it. In the US it is also available digitally as a Kindle version and/or used. You might want to check out Maggie Maggio’s website where some of the exercises, charts and worksheets for the book have been posted. Good luck on your color adventures. Lindly
