I recently came across this artist on the web and was amazed by the artwork she creates from cake icing! The mural on this wall is "painted" completely using the same icing you would use to decorate a cake with.
I spent quite a bit of time scrolling through all the pictures on her site and was amazed by them and the stories that go with all the different pieces of art she creates. She also has a series of sand sculptures featured that were created years ago. I'd definitely check those out also.
And just about 6 weeks ago she participated in an event in Toronto, ON with this awesome display. Tons of pics to look at here. Wish I could have been there to see it in person. I'm sure I would have enjoyed not only seeing her wall, but all the others that were part of the event.
Now if you'll excuse me, all this talk of cake icing is making me hungry. Think it's time for some breakfast. :)
I think just about every person at one point in their life attempts to build a sand castle. Mine never turned out so well. I mean how hard can it be to take a bucket of sand and make it stay in the same shape as the upside down bucket, if you can get it to come out of the bucket the right way? Evidently it's pretty hard for some of us as mine were either too wet and slid back down into the sand or were too dry and blew over.
I'm amazed by the talent & skill some sand artists have that produces awe inspiring, massive sand sculptures. One of the items on my "bucket list" is to make it to one of those amazing sand sculpture festivals they have around the world (downside of living in N.E. Ohio...we have nothing that cool going on!). Until I strike it rich in the lottery, I'll be forced to look at pictures of them online.
I've found a great article through ChicagoNow.com that has photos of 88 fantastic sculptures. I've included some of them here for you to ooh and aah over. If you'd like to see more of them, just click here and you'll go to the photo gallery of them.
