You Will Need
-
Step 1Choose 3 complimentary colors in equal amounts. Arrange as shown to do a Skinner blend, with the lightest color at the left and darkest at the right. Create the blend.
-
Step 2Once the blend is finished, do an accordian fold as show. The result will be lightest color at the bottom of the stack, large blended section, and then darkest at the top.
-
Step 3Compress the block and flatten it out a little, then using your cutting blade, slice the block in half.
-
Step 4Stack the two halves as shown, light side of one half to the dark side of the other half.
-
Step 5Squeeze in the corners to form the block into a round log.
-
Step 6Using a dark contrasting color, roll out a sheet on number 7 on the pasta machine and wrap the log in this sheet. Begin to reduce the log.
-
Step 7Once you have reduced the log, cut it into 8 equal pieces as shown.
-
Step 8Pinch the 8 pieces to form petal shapes as show. Make a center for the flower by sandwiching sheets of light and dark colors, roll them up, cut to the same height as the petals, and then wrap it in the same color as the petals. Arrange the petals around the center.
-
Step 9This how your cane will look before adding the background.
-
Step 10Add triangles of translucent clay between the petals.
-
Step 11Now reduce your cane and cut.

Step 12Enjoy
