Read MoreAs soon as I saw these bowls I knew I had to buy this tutorial. I've watched all the video's in these lessons and now can't wait to get my clay and get going. This is my second set of tutorials I've bought and these won't be the last of Helen's tutorials. Next on my list is the in the loop tutorial or the shapes book mentioned at the end of this series.

Je ne pensais pas pouvoir faire des "bowls". Helen me prouve le contraire par ce cours tellement bien construit. Elle arrive à capter mon attention du début à la fin et à me faire assimiler toutes les étapes. Un cours passionnant ! Merci Helen.

Read MoreHelen Breil is easily my favorite artist. Her designs are stunning and completely in line with my tastes. Her courses are always clear and easy to understand, and this video course is no exception. The Mad About Bowls class is extremely detailed and clear, yet simple and easy to follow along. She goes above and beyond to teach, not only the bowl design, but texture designs, creating textures and reverse textures, coloring with various mediums, and even shows many variations on every bowl. If you're looking for an incredibly inspirational class that will leave you with gorgeous pieces and loads of ideas to create more, this course is for you!

Read MoreThe techniques learned in Helen Breil's "Mad About Bowls" class will be invaluable additions to your polymer clay repertoire. As always, she provides detailed, easily understood instructions in video and written formats for different learning styles. Materials, supplies, and techniques for each project are outlined in a logical manner that are easily referred to as you progress through the lessons. One of the best things about Helen Breil's classes is that she offers tips for creating professional-looking items as well as solutions to common issues that are not often found in other classes and tutorials and she generously shares her texturing processes and her unique shaping methods. As a long-time admirer of her work, I am always thrilled to have the opportunity to learn from a master polymer clay artist like Helen and rest assured, you will be very pleased that the amount of information provided in this class makes it well worth the already reasonable price.

Read MoreThe level of detail in this class is incredible. Every step of the process is covered so well, including custom textures, coloring, finishing. And there's an explanation for every suggestion as well. The gallery section helps think of other variations. I think I will be making bowls for a long time!

Read MoreOnce again Helen Breil produces a fantastic tutorial ... complete with clear and precise text and video's that lead the student to a perfect end product. But better than the end product is the amount of tips and tricks she freely gives. Reference list is extensive. Ideas and pictures of her gallery are plentiful and wonderful visions of possibilities. Helen is so giving of her talent and makes it so easy to follow. I would buy ANY VIDEO that Helen puts out no matter what the subject was. I want to also mention her husband who I think has quite a bit to do with the production of the tutorials as well as her silkscreens and stamps. Great Job Helen (and husband?). Really an impressive educational tool I will keep forever!

Read MoreMany years ago I bought Helen’s texture sheets from Shades of Clay and recently found Helen’s videos on YouTube. Helen is very talented artist and gifted teacher and she is generously sharing with us her knowledge. It took me watching only the first lesson of the class - and I enrolled to all three. Went through all of them on one breath. Will watch again many times for details. Innovative, creative and full of gorgeous projects. The most professional class I’ve ever taken on-line, thoughtfully brought together by a wonderful husband and wife collaboration. Everything is superb - projects, explanations, filming, sound. Just as it should be. Thank you so much for sharing your brilliant ideas with us, Helen and Mike!
