Edible Models 10/01/2011
One of the things I really like about what I do, making realistic fabric breads and pastries(soft sculptures), is that, you can eat your models when they finish modeling for you. Now isn’t that fantastic? On top of that, they are readily available at little cost and they don’t charge by the hour. The other great economical part of this craft is that it is rather inexpensive to start. A yard of fabric, a needle and thread, some kind of fiberfill and a small bottle of water based paint. (All details can be found in the Magic In the Fabric Books) When I first started doing this, I lived in a two-bedroom apartment. I used the second bedroom for designing and sewing my art work and then I covered my second bathroom in plastic sheeting to protect the walls, for my painting room. It really doesn’t take a whole lot of space to start this project, just enough room for sewing and painting, without making a mess. Here is a picture of my first “studio.” I think this is quite a curious photo, don’t you? How many times have you seen something that obvious looks like food on the same table as painting supplies?
